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.
