McGregor is proud to have several not-for-profit organisations, who
are doing some excellent work within the community. As
always, these organisations run from one funding crisis to the
next. If you can help support them in any way, please get in
touch, either directly or via the Contact Us link above.
PONDO
To create environments for
children of any race, colour, gender or creed who are in need of
love and shelter.
THE P.O.N.D.O. CHILDREN'S VILLAGE TRUST is an organisation whose
ambit encompasses residential childcare homes and
community-oriented initiatives to support the prevention of child
abuse and neglect.
Their major needs revolve around financial support for the
continuation of the Stone House project. The ways that they attempt
to address their needs are through sponsorship for individual
children - in the form of a network of individuals who sponsor a
specific child's needs, i.e. clothing, birthday outings, gifts or
"general running costs". In short, in any way that the individual
sees fit to support.

The McGregor Family Centre
Run under the auspices of the P.O.N.D.O., the McGregor Family
Centre has as its aim the provision of support to vulnerable
children and their families within the community. Its goal is to
reduce child abuse and neglect in the village and surrounding rural
area, by empowering families to break the cycle of frustration,
despair, alcoholism, domestic violence and apathy.
The Centre is completely dependent on donated funds, yet the work
they do in the community is beyond price. Please consider helping,
either with time or financially.
To read more about their work, please see their
page.
The McGregor Waldorf School
The School provides an holistic education, from Playgroup through to Class 11, to children from all backgrounds. It aims to stimulate independent, critical, creative thinking, to encourage working constructively with others, to develop the will and intellect, and to nourish the soul.
If you would like to play a developmental role in this community, to give your children a holistic education, or help with funding, please see the McGregor Waldorf School page.
