Dream. Aspire. Believe.


Running in both Nyanga and Khayelitsha, Masizikhulise aims to develop the skills of its participants and empower them to become more economically, motivated and active members of society, which they accomplish by starting their own businesses, getting meaningful jobs, honing and applying their IT skills, as well as being socially responsible and active members of their communities. Furthermore our mission is to provide our volunteers with an opportunity to develop by making a positive and tangible impact on the lives of the participants through the process of passing on credible knowledge and information.

Masizikhulise is divided into four sub-projects, each with its own focus. In Entrepreneurship, participants develop their business skills and are guided towards producing their own business plans. Employment Search Skills focuses on how to go about developing one's skills and guides participants through the difficult task of professionally applying for a job. Relevant social issues are discussed in Breaking-In where the group works towards solving problems and becoming more socially responsible members of their communities. All participants are required to learn valuable computer skills during IT.

All curricula have been developed with the relevant departments of UCT and with the Graduate School of Business.
