Kidz Hub has created a convenient and safe learning space for kids to be assisted with their daily school work paired with a trained tutor. Entrepreneurship, technology, Lifeskills, gardening, and recycling activities are also offered to enhance our kids' personal development.
We provide positive, long-lasting academic and personal support to township kids.
We provide safe and conducive learning spaces while equipping kids with lifetime skills.
Kidz Hub is a non-profit organization with a PBO status, and it was established in September 2016 by Randy Mampuru at the age of 20. The organisation came into existence with the objective of gathering kids within her community in Dobsonville Soweto and assisting them in providing a convenient and safe learning space, where they will be assisted with their daily homework, reading, spelling and extra mural activities to enhance personal development.
By starting Kidz Hub in her mother's kitchen and garage, Randy realized that she could not provide these services on her own. Kidz Hub started recruiting young unemployed matriculants and trained them to be tutors to their fellow younger brothers and sisters while they received mentorship, career guidance, skills training, and personal development support.
Today, Kidz Hub has grown to accommodate 100 kids daily and has 13 volunteering tutors who are receiving first-hand employment experience.
