I''m working for government for about 5 years and I do pay tax. I want to know that is it true that if I help my community with something will I not get taxed? example , let me say I help a community creche with building structure, and buying of educational toys for them. Will I still get taxed?

You will still get taxed yes, but if that organisation that you are helping is registered with SARS as a not-for-profit organisation then you can claim the amount donated to them as a tax deduction and reduce how much tax you should pay.
