It Takes a Village - We Are That Village.

Welcome to Cassie Cares

Empowering Young Minds. Uplifting Communities.

At Cassie Cares, we believe that every child deserves more—more opportunity, more support, more love. We exist to bridge the gap between underprivileged youth and the resources they need to thrive, not just in school, but in life.

Through our multimedia centres and community-based programmes, we provide holistic development for children and youth across South Africa. From early learning and skills training to nutrition, counselling, and creative arts, we’re here to build futures, inspire dreams, and change lives—one child at a time.

Our Vision for Change

Education is the Foundation. Empowerment is the Goal.

At Cassie Cares, we see education as more than books and classrooms—it’s the spark that lights the way toward opportunity, confidence, and independence. Our vision is to create equal access to education and support systems that help underprivileged youth thrive in all aspects of life.

Multimedia Centres

Our multimedia centres are the heart of our work—vibrant spaces filled with resources, mentorship, and opportunity. These centres offer educational support, digital literacy, arts programmes, life skills, and more, all tailored for young people aged 0–35.

Each centre is rooted in its community, designed to meet local needs and driven by a shared goal: to uplift the next generation. Here, children find more than just help with homework—they discover role models, creativity, care, and the freedom to dream.

Powered by Community

We know that sustainable change begins within communities. That’s why Cassie Cares partners with local parents, educators, leaders, and organisations to co-create programmes that reflect the true needs and dreams of each area we serve.

From feeding schemes to digital skills workshops, everything we do is built through collaboration. Together, we’re not just creating impact—we’re creating a movement that puts compassion, dignity, and shared responsibility at the centre of progress.

Education for All
At Cassie Cares, we believe that education is a basic right, not a privilege. Unfortunately, many children in under-resourced communities face barriers to even the most basic learning opportunities. Through our multimedia centres and after-school support, we ensure that children receive the academic foundation they need to thrive.

Our education initiatives include reading readiness, homework support, and foundational literacy and numeracy for early learners. We work hand-in-hand with local schools and educators to complement existing curriculums and fill the gaps in learning, helping each child reach their full potential.

Digital Skills & Coding

In a rapidly advancing digital world, young people without access to technology are at a massive disadvantage. That’s why Cassie Cares offers digital literacy and coding programmes to introduce children and youth to vital 21st-century skills.

From learning basic computer functions to building apps and websites, our programmes are designed to spark curiosity, problem-solving, and future career readiness. By exposing young minds to technology early, we’re building a generation that’s not just tech-savvy, but tech-confident.

Creative Arts by Artists

Creative expression is a powerful tool for healing, growth, and identity. Through our Arts by Artists initiative, we give children the chance to explore their talents in visual arts, music, drama, and dance—often for the first time in their lives.

These programmes aren't just about having fun—they help children process emotions, build confidence, and develop teamwork and communication skills. By connecting youth with local artists and mentors, we also nurture community pride and creative careers.

Health, Nutrition & Wellness

Good health is essential for effective learning and development. Many children we serve face hunger, poor nutrition, or untreated health challenges that affect their daily lives. That’s why we offer feeding schemes, wellness education, and access to physical and emotional healthcare.

Through partnerships with healthcare and mental wellness professionals, we provide holistic support to our children and their families. Whether it's a warm meal, a health screening, or a conversation with a counsellor, our approach ensures that children feel cared for in body and mind.

Community & Mentorship

We believe that sustainable change begins with people who care—right within the communities we serve. That’s why mentorship and community involvement are at the heart of everything we do. We work closely with local leaders, parents, and volunteers to create safe, supportive environments where children can grow.

Our mentorship programmes connect young people with positive role models who guide them, challenge them, and celebrate their wins. We also support mothers through our Mothers Who Care initiative, fostering resilience and emotional strength within homes. At Cassie Cares, community isn't just a backdrop—it’s the foundation.
