DEVELOPMENT
LEVERAGING TECHNOLOGY FOR EDUCATION
We have partnered with Professor Jean Greyling from the Nelson Mandela
University to empower teachers in disadvantaged communities with
a cost effective tool to teach learners coding principles. This tool is a coding game called TANKS. This game has exposed more than 5000 learners
(within the country and around the globe) to programming principles and
careers in the IT industry. The game has inspired a few learners to
pursue a career in Computer Sciences.
We will also be leveraging this app to raise awareness and educate
learners about socioeconomic issues.
ALLEVIATING THE ABANDONMENT
OF BABIES IN OUR CITY
We have partnered with Baby Blessings and Heart for Alternatives to install
a baby safe in Walmer Township. This safe will make it possible for mothers
in crisis to put their baby in a safe place and get the help they need.
This will ensure that the baby’s life is preserved

As the students take on more responsibility, their share in profits
increases until they are able to purchase the coffee bar with their equity.
