Changing lives
Through Innovation
Ability to use technology safely is key to young people gaining employment. The web is both a dangerous place and somewhere were knowledge can be accessed. The use of social media platforms are an essential part of young people lives. We believe that providing a safe, monitored space with access to proven programmes along with mentoring and tutoring about how to use the web safely is an important part of young people's developmet.
We are innovative in our approach to development, for example;
-
We were the first NGO to build FIFA standard futsal pitches.
-
We have worked with local organisations to build a disability centre next to our other facilities in Mbekweni.
-
We have pioneered the use of tablets and technology to facilitate and monitor skills development in pre-school children.
-
In Franschhoek we built a learning centre and library, equipped with computers, educational software, books and home teaching aids.

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
