The young people at the heart of SAYes continue to forge the way, as new leaders of social change. Here are a few of the projects that they have been getting involved in.
UK Alumni get together in London
Our growing band of UK Alumni got together for what they plan will be regular meet-ups in London. We were delighted to use the space at Soap Box, located in our partner Borough of Islington. The facility, run by The Dragon Trust, is perfect for young people to meet and chill together. It's free for young Londoners to use (16-26yrs), and includes amongst other things: a podcast studio; two music recording studios; VR room; and driving simulator. Thanks to Nick and the team for being so welcoming.
South African Alumni planning meeting
The South African Alumni met up recently to structure the next few months of activities and goals. As always, a fantastic time was had by everyone who attended.
Ambassadors and Alumni run scuccessful Careers Expo Event
Congratulations to our Mentee Liaisons, Ambassadors and Alumni for organising a successful and super-informative Careers Expo for the young people in our partner Child and Youth Care Centres (CYCCs).
Mentee Liaisons continue to provide a vital connection to the young people on our programme
Thank you to The Community Chest who kindly donated 240 textbooks to us. Mentee Liaisons Bertin and Zizipho were delighted to drop off the books to our partner Child and Youth Care Centres. Now, young people in those CYCCs will have direct access to a wealth of school literature.
As always, your support is what allows us to drive these projects. We couldn't do this without you.
