KZN Learning Centre

Our aim for this centre is to provide classes at a very cheap rate due to the funding from donors and tax exemptions. Children that qualify will receive extra classes totally free of charge. We have realized that skills development and career guidance is lacking among our youth and especially the grade 12 pupils. As a means of positively influencing the community, we will be embarking on providing short programmes for our school leavers like the introduction to computers, call centre training, life coaching,security training , health and beauty etc. Our youth based programs will be targeting substance abuse, career guidance, psychological and emotional awareness, prevention of HIV and other illness workshops, teenage pregnancy and other youth-related concerns. We would like to grow this centre and open many branches in the years to come across the KZN by spreading the message through the schooling channels and helping more children annually. Our vision and mission is to set the stage for today’s children.
