Community impact

Published - 05/05/2026

 

In the final stage of our Ubuyantashi project, trainees have completed activities to benefit their local community.

Our community impact modules extended the project’s benefits beyond the trainees themselves, supporting vulnerable households while giving participants the chance to demonstrate their skills, build visibility and strengthen their role as active contributors in their communities.

Tailoring & Fashion Design trainees have partnered with local schools to provide affordable uniforms for children.  They ran community clothing drives to alter or repair donated clothes before distributing to children and elderly members of the community who could not afford to pay for repairs.

General Agriculture trainees have organised farmers markets where they have taken their quality produce to new customers.

Catering & Hospitality students offered cooking classes to teach healthy and affordable meal preparation.

Equipped with technical and business skills, work placement and real world project experience, our trainees complete the Ubuyantashi project ready to move forward into formal or self-employment.
