ArtAngels Online Auction for the benefit of Click Learning

We are adding an online auction in addition to our ArtAngels charity auction for those interested in luxury travel and goodies. All proceeds will go to @click_learning to help reach one million learners and teach them to read for meaning and calculate with confidence by 2030.

Raffle closes 5pm on 3 November 2022 and bid details are available at: http://ow.ly/HB3v50LlgGi

@click_learning is an NGO that helps under-serviced primary schools in South Africa improve foundational literacy, numeracy and digital skills by deploying relevant online programmes.

These programmes allow young learners to work at their own pace and navigate their learning journey using technology. In the process we create jobs for unemployed youth who assist schools and teachers with implementation.

Today we sadly say farewell to Carl who has been part of the Ellerman House Family for 17 years. We will miss Carl and his caring and remarkable character dearly, but wish him only happiness in his next chapter.

Although you are returning home Carl, Ellerman House will always be your home in Cape Town.
