Vision & Mission
Our vision: Creating hope and development opportunities to build self-sustaining communities.
Ndlovu Care Group works with communities to deliver integrated, innovative and evidence-based
programmes that strengthen childcare and youth development, skills development, infrastructure
development & WASH, and research for sustainable community development.





How the journey started
Six days after the first free elections in 1994, Liesje and Hugo Tempelman took the big step to start the construction of the Ndlovu Medical Centre in the middle of Elandsdoorn, a township in Moutse.
Moutse is a region in the Sekhukhune District of the Limpopo Province, comprising approximately 27 villages with a total population of between 120 000 – 130 000. Residing under the Bantwane Tribal Authority, most inhabitants are Northern-Sotho speaking. Medical infrastructure was minimal: two poorly equipped public health care clinics managed by brave professional nurses, and not a single medical doctor working in the area.
It was the start of a long and exciting journey that would lead to the development and implementation of an integrated, holistic model of community development.

Childcare programmes focus on supporting young people in their physical, mental, social and cultural development
Water, Sanitation & Hygiene
Sustainable access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene belongs to physiological needs and is one of the essential issues
Infrastructure Support
Ensure not only the homes of child-headed households are safe and secure also including construction/maintenance of all organisational infrastructure
Skills
Development
Practical, hands-on training that equips individuals with the skills needed to access employment, build sustainable livelihoods, and contribute to their communities.
