We have officially partnered with the program WOW (Welfare of Witteklip), launched in 1984 by the staff of the local high school in Chatsworth, South Africa. With a community overlooked by the government, they took it upon themselves to help their students and their families with groceries, utility bills, school fees and other financial needs.
Together our goal is to expand the reach of assisting low income families, bring back curriculum and teachers to the school like music, arts, physical education, a guidance counselor and more, and helping teens develop career plans post high school.
