Supporting EarthChild Project
EarthChild ProjectSchalk is honored to be supporting Earth Child Project , a Non-Profit Organization operating in disadvantaged schools in Cape Town, South Africa. Working with children and teachers their educational programs focus on the environment, health and life-skills. They teach practical skills such as yoga, mindfulness & organic gardening to over 3500 children and 300 teachers.
Donations in Germany:
At the end of 2022, EarthChild e.V. Germany was founded to support EarthChild Project South Africa. This makes it possible to issue German tax certificates for donations to EarthChild - Donation Options.
- R250 / €15 pays for yoga for 1x child for a full year.
This is less than a single class drop-in in Germany/Switzerland.

Visit to Khayelitsha - 15th November 2018
Schalk had the immense pleasure of taking part in a class led by Noks Jada ... we had a lot of fun learning how we can emulate the qualities of the different animals whose shapes we were taking.
Amazing how focused a group of 9 year olds can be.
