The Golden Future Project is a non-profit community-based educational project aimed at providing substantial improvement in health, life skills and business skills to underprivileged youths in the Western Cape. This project seeks to provide opportunities for high school learners to increase their accessibility to tertiary education, or to be equipped with other skills required to make some other dreams come true.
We have started off the project with workshops on computer skills at Usasazo Secondary School in Khayelitsha. On Saturday mornings, approximately 40-50 Grade 10 learners come to the school’s two computer rooms for sessions on basic computer literacy, including MS word and Internet explorer. These learners have had little previous computer training or experience. With the assistance of our volunteer tutors (students from the University of Cape Town) the learners have gained many new skills, such as being able to type a basic document in Word, while the See-a-need Fill-a-Need foundation (SANFAN) kindly provides food and juice for the learners after the sessions to refresh them for the rest of their weekend.
