For
Children's centres and businesses in Windhoek
Worth noticing
A new centre must collect 100 bags and complete three cleanups with a mentor before joining, subject to capacity and donor funding.

Field notes

The reward rate is tied to mentorship: the page says a centre's rate can rise from 3 points per bag to 5, 7, or 10 as it mentors more centres. Counts are checked against photos and videos shared in a WhatsApp group, mentor confirmation, and app records; the page says falsifying bags or points leads to exclusion. New centres must complete 100 bags and three cleanups with a mentor, and joining depends on available capacity and donor funding.
