Just Grace Non-Profit Fundraiser
Tax deductible
Just Grace is a youth-focused non-profit organization based in Langa, South Africa, one of the first townships established for Black Africans. This community is still experiencing the effects of the apartheid era, as most of the population lives under immense poverty, unemployment, and inequality. Since 2012 Just Grace has been working to empower the youth through various programs focused on technical and soft skills and providing psychosocial support. This includes:
- Qhubeka youth development program, which offers academic support, psycho-social support, coding, book clubs, and lateral development activities.
- Phuhlisa School strengthening programme, which supports high school students who have dropped out or are at risk of dropping out by providing counselling and directly working with their families to identify any negative contributing factors and reintegrate them back into the schooling system.
- Phakama Youth Activation Programme strives to uplift and excite youth about employment from 17-27 through personal and professional development training, technical skills (accounting, sewing, and barista), and job-scouting assistance.
- The Empilweni thriving communities programme also aims to create a peaceful and healthy Langa through community forums, mental health resources, and mindfulness skills and practices.
Although they’re doing this excellent work, they’re a smaller non-profit that, at the current time, would greatly benefit from any financial support and assistance. With that, I’m asking everyone to donate, if possible, and share this Gofundme to support Just Grace.
