The “Tamaho” nursery school project was begun about four years ago by Henkel South Africa. Financial support for the project was provided by MIT and through private donations from employees and former members of the Henkel management. The nursery school is located near the Henkel site in southeastern Johannesburg in a residential area inhabited mainly by colored people, a township named “Tamaho”, and is attended by 37 children, who are cared for by trained nursery school teachers. The nursery school facilities are also used in the evening for specific events, such as information sessions on HIV/AIDS for members of the parish.
