Project Report | May 10, 2017
Meet Surprise, the Future Administrator of NASA!

By Mehdeen Sehgal | Senior Marketing and Development Associate

At Afrika Tikkun, we help kids from disadvantaged communities to realize their dreams and become leaders of tomorrow. Our unique Cradle-to-Career Development Model enables our 550+ employees to deliver services addressing holistic educational, medical and economic needs of marginalized youth from early infancy through adulthood, inspiring and enabling them to become productive citizens and leaders.

One of our ‘future leaders’ is Surprise, who at age 13 wants to be a leader in the aerospace industry just like his hero, Charles F. Bolden, former Administrator of NASA. He recently gave notice to Charles F. Bolden on LinkedIn that he is on his way to becoming the next Administrator of NASA. Please click HERE to watch his video.

Before joining Afrika Tikkun, Surprise struggled with his grades. Now, Surprise is enrolled in our Uthando center in South Africa and believes that the facilitators are helping him excel in his schoolwork. If you would like to connect with Surprise and follow his journey of becoming the next Administrator of NASA, please click HERE.

If you would like to meet our other future leaders and would like to learn about how Afrika Tikkun is helping them achieve their goals, please click HERE.

Thank you for your generous contribution to Afrika Tikkun. Your support has enabled Afrika Tikkun to educate and empower the most vulnerable communities in South Africa and has helped our kids to pursue their professional and academic goals.

We hope that you will continue your journey with us to help disadvantaged youth in South Africa,  become leaders of tomorrow!

Warm regards, 

Mehdeen Sehgal
