CHANNELS FOR CHANGE
— Read to Me
Improving children's lives by improving literacy.
Read to Me, sees LINC Foundation volunteers work side by side with educators in government schools, teaching children to read in English with confidence so they can better engage with learning materials and the content of books.
— Step Ahead
Promoting social-emotional health among our next generation.
Geared at helping young individuals who don’t necessarily have strong role models at home to learn critical skills such as: self-awareness, self-control, empathy, drive & the ability to establish & maintain healthy relationships while working towards personal goals.
Empowering individuals to break the cycle of poverty for themselves.
Helping to give people hope by equipping them with the tools they need to get (and keep) a job or to start their own business. The programme has been running successfully since 2007.
Blessing those less fortunate than us with simple acts of kindness.
This initiative takes place annually during the week of Mandela Day with the aim of getting the community involved in a variety of simple acts that bring light and hope (and practical assistance) to others in need.
TESTIMONIALS
My regular income reunited my family and enabled us to move our wedding forward
Thandeka had never worked before coming to W4AL. She had 3 children who she had to send off to her fiance’s extended family in Richards Bay but she wanted to have them back living with her. Because of her positive attitude she was quickly employed by a local business and was able to earn enough to bring her children home.
I am very grateful for W4AL it has changed my life, I am a very happy person now
Nelly worked as a domestic worker prior to doing W4AL. After the course she got a job at a local entertainment park. Whilst working there she was approached by a regular customer who was so impressed by her character and attitude that he asked her to work for his family and look after his children.
I see my co-workers making the same mistakes I used to & I am grateful for what I was taught
As a student at Work4ALiving, Roof struggled with confidence and was perceived to be a rather difficult and negative individual. Despite this he found himself a job at Food Lover’s Market and has been working there for over a year.
I want to build a solid business where I can help more people by creating job opportunities
When Cebo came to W4AL -he had already been doing temporary work. His girlfriend fell pregnant when he was 19 and he realised that he needed to provide for her and his child.
