Virtual Gift

Here at Daktari we work really hard to motivate and inspire children. We give them a great experience and extra lesson in English, maths, geography and biology. In addition, we educate them about environmental & ecological issues, self-confidence, social issues, social skills and self respect.

The children at Daktari

As all the children come from underprivileged or vulnerable backgrounds we do not charge them anything for their stay. Daktari takes children from:

- The HIV/AIDS Orphanage in Ofcolaco

- The Rakgolokwane School in Sekororo village

Why give a Virtual Gift to Daktari?

So let us tell you where your money goes – be sure that every Rand is spent making Daktari Bush School a positive and enjoyable educational experience for the children. They are normally in classes of up to 160 children with only one teacher. At Daktari we take six children at a time which provides a unique possibility for them to benefit from a more individual experience. However, this is not without costs.

VIRTUAL GIFTS AVAILABLE

This is where YOUR VIRTUAL GIFT really comes in handy as hard work alone unfortunately won’t do the job. So this is how it can ensure that even more children get a wonderful time at Daktari.

The Bushbaby Gift:

This gift will provide enough money for us to purchase all educational materials (pen, paper, chalk, reference books etc.) needed to educate all the children for one week. They do not bring their own pen and paper, so they can take their notebooks away with them.

R140 (GPB 10, USD 20, EUR 15, DKK 110).

The Impala Gift:

This gift will provide enough money for us to feed one child three meals a day throughout his or her stay at Daktari. As we know it is really important for children to be fed properly to enhance their mental capability.

R280 (GPB 20, USD 40, EUR 30, DKK 220).

The Monkey Gift:

This gift will provide enough money for us to educate, transport, accommodate and feed one of the children from Sekororo for one whole week. In giving this gift you will be able to ensure the continued educational work of Daktari,

R420 (GPB 30, USD 60, EUR 45, DKK 330).

The Cheetah Gift:

This gift will provide enough money for us to collect the children from Sekororo and return them at the end of the week. The cost of diesel is high here and we need a vehicle which can safely transport the children and volunteers on both bush and official roads.

R700 (GPB 50, USD 100, EUR 75, DKK 550).

The Rhino Gift:

This gift will provide enough money for a group of six children from the HIV/AIDS Orphanage to come and stay at Daktari for a whole week of education. The HIV/AIDS Orphanage costs are slightly cheaper because they transport the children and also provide us with some basic food supplies.

R1400 (GPB 100, USD 200, EUR 150, DKK 1100).
