About
We’re passionate about developing youth from underserved South African communities. We want them to succeed in their lifelong learning journey from school to employment. As an NPO and youth development organisation, we don’t measure profit; we measure impact. For over a decade we’ve partnered with industry leaders and communities to tackle youth unemployment and access to quality education.
COVID-19 increased global poverty levels, making our programmes to equip young people even more critical.
We unlock career potential and fast-track careers of unemployed youth in the retail value chain. In 2020 4,301 youth participated in skills development programmes.
We provide holistic support to 98 schools across the country, helping principals, educators, learners and the community create excellent learning environments.
What makes us different?
Our heart for social development and our sustainable business mindset helps us create systemic change for our beneficiaries. A strong monitoring and evaluation process guides our decisions, ensuring we’re always questioning our true impact.
Our programmes align with a number of United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
