CHOSA takes a holistic approach to community development.

Children of South Africa (CHOSA) empowers grassroots organisations across South Africa to build safe, inclusive spaces where children and young people are protected, supported, and equipped to learn, grow, and reach their full potential. By supporting community-based organizations in Cape Town's most resource-challenged areas, we empower marginalized people in these communities as they care for orphaned and vulnerable children. Moreover, through community participation, CHOSA promotes local action, self-empowerment, and peer-to-peer networking as essential strategies for community-owned development.

Every vote shapes the future our children will inherit.

As South Africans, our voices matter in shaping the communities we want to live in. Voter participation is one way to influence decisions that affect education, child protection, healthcare and community development.

🗳️ Make your voice count and cast your ballot.

A better future for our children starts with informed choices today.

World Mental Health Awareness Day 💚

This Mental Health Awareness Day, it’s important to remember that children’s mental health matters too. Every child deserves to feel safe, supported and heard.

02/10/2026

On Wednesday, CHOSA and our partner organisations met with the Atlantic Institute team introduce our partners and share their work, achievements, and the realities of working on the ground in South Africa.

We discussed the challenges grassroots organisations face, from funding constraints to limited resources, while celebrating their resilience and the meaningful impact they make in their communities every day.

At CHOSA, we believe that lasting change starts with communities. By amplifying grassroots voices and strengthening collaboration, we can build stronger, more sustainable support for the organisations driving change from the ground up. ✊🏽

Food for thought🍎

When children have access to nutritious food, they have a better chance of staying healthy, concentrating in class and getting through the school day with energy.

No child should have to choose between learning and hunger.

Help us put nutritious meals within reach of more children. Every contribution counts.
