The streets of Hammarsdale township in KZN may be littered with illegal firearms unleashing bloodshed, but Dineo Koloko is determined to change that legacy by arming children in the area with the most powerful weapon, education | noks_khanyile GoodNews24

A Hammarsdale woman has started an educational initiative to eradicate illiteracy levels in her community.The initiative is run by community volunteers through a specialised curriculum developing school readiness.

The 31-year-old spends most of her weekends with about 20 children - most of their faces caked in dust - in a low-cost house built by the municipality, where she teaches them how to read and write and helps them with homework.'I believe that a child is raised by the whole community, and this is my small contribution."

"I strongly believe that by exposing a child to the right story, one can refer to the events and essential facets of narrative to teach them something about the world," she said.
