Education enables people to break out of the poverty trap and enhance the quality of life for themselves and their community. We build preschools and classrooms, develop bursary programmes, teach environmental awareness and build capacity in our communities, conduct vocational training and facilitate adult education programmes.

Health Care is a key to progress - to ensuring human dignity and security. We build and equip clinics and support their operation, run HIV/AIDS awareness programmes, provide health care information and counselling, and help provide clean water.

The scourge of unemployment in rural communities can be tackled by identifying and empowering entrepreneurs, whose small, emerging enterprises can be an effective means of job creation. We identify opportunities and help start-ups, but in particular, we stimulate the potential for income generation through a highly successful skills training programme, and through access to technology. |
