New Partnership Bringing Dignity and Support to Schoolgirls
YAMI Community Projects is excited to announce a new partnership with Humanitarian Empowerment Fund (HEF) and Dis-Chem Foundation to support school-going girls in the Barberton area.
Through this partnership, we have identified a local school where sanitary pads will be distributed to learners who may otherwise struggle to access these essential hygiene products. This initiative aims to promote dignity, confidence, and school attendance by ensuring that girls can manage their menstrual health without disruption to their education.
Access to sanitary products remains a challenge for many young women, and partnerships such as this play a vital role in helping learners stay focused on their studies and participate fully in school life.
We are grateful to HEF and Dis-Chem for joining us in making a positive difference in the lives of young girls in our community. Together, we are helping to create opportunities, restore dignity, and build brighter futures.
A Special Treat for Dedicated Leaders and Volunteers
A Special Treat for Dedicated Leaders and Volunteers
On 23 June 2026, the Project welcomed 135 children. To the delight of the leaders and volunteers, they received a wonderful surprise when pizzas were generously donated by Debonairs Pizza Barberton. The unexpected gift was a meaningful gesture of appreciation for those who regularly give their time and energy to serve others.
The smiles and excitement on their faces were a reminder of how much a simple act of kindness can mean.
Tinyoni Level 2 Learners Celebrate Their Success
Tinyoni Level 2 Learners Celebrate Their Success
On 25 June 2026, we celebrated the successful completion of another Tinyoni Sewing Project Level 2 course.
Over six weeks, learners developed advanced sewing skills, including pattern reading, pattern drafting, working with stretch fabrics, and creating pleats. Each student drafted their own tracksuit pattern and made a tracksuit top, as well as a beautiful pleated dress.
The course ended with a joyful celebration of their hard work, creativity, and achievements. We are incredibly proud of what they have accomplished and look forward to seeing how they use these skills to create new opportunities for themselves and their families.
