After Phase 2 our beneficiaries progress to Phase 3 with bursaries secured by Go for Gold partner companies in Phase 2. Go for Gold also sources external bursaries to ensure all students in their various years of study at tertiary institutions in Phase 3 are supported. Phase 3 our students who did not qualify for University are upskilled through remaining at our partner companies on Learnership. The rest of the cohort with qualifying marks enrol in tertiary studies at a University, University of Technology or TVET/FET College. more >
Once students graduate as technical professionals, Go for Gold utilise our partner companies network to employ them. However, if one of our partner companies provided a bursary or multiple-year bursaries, each partner has their own work-back agreements in place with students. For students who qualifed through Learnerships, they are often employed and retained by our partner companies. Phase 4 concludes the programme and we track our alumni throughout their professional development. more >
Tiffany's After School Programswas started in 2014 for primary and high school learners whose parents work full-time required and who required academic assistance with their homework and subject matter. As many children live in households where there is no quiet academic space, this service is very necessary. A further reason is the large number of learners per class at school, which means that teachers don't have time to give individual attention to learners who need additional help. Gangster operations and the insecurity of the area are also a reason why children after school should be housed in a safe area. Good attendance of the programs confirms the necessity of the programs. Together with the teaching, children are given a hearty meal. PROGRAMS OFFERED: Mathematics, Reading and Homework classes by trained teachers. Internet services for research for the learners' tasks, photostats and CVs are also a service that is provided to learners by the school. Miqlat offers a staff member for this service in the afternoon. Drama, Writing and Life Skills courses are presented by a qualified drama teacher from April to November for the Gangster children who are no longer active in the gangs. Ball Room Dancing Tuesdays and Thursdays. Gym for learners and the public. Netball and Basketball BENEFICIARIES Learners from Grades 4 to 12.Creche children (2 months to 5 years) who are enrolled in Tiffany's Day Care Center and are safely kept and taken care of until 17:00.

The aim of the program is to guide young people on self-discovery journeys to revive their cultural roots, define new ways of belonging and discover and own their identity. Building a sense of self, recognizing and defining your identity and experiencing belonging can enhance well-being and resilience within young lives. Creative expression can support young people to build self-awareness and self-confidence. Using a creative approach allows for young people to recognize the forms of knowledge and identities that exist within them. An important part of this work for young people at Lawrence House is locating a relationship between the past and the present people and to imagine new connections between the personal and the collective. more >

BEEP realised that its not enough to insists that -education is the key to life -, as our current educational syllabus doesn't seem to provide pupils with any learnings that are skill orientated or that are intended to help them to unlock their skills, nurture and sharpen their skills for the betterment of their future especially at the young age. It is that reason BEEP invests through its daily workshops in 8 different schools in services such as leadership development, confidence building, capacity building, literacy skills development, mentorship, motivational talks development, agricultural or food security skills and most importantly entrepreneurial skills. Therefore BEEP in partnership with UCT (Global Risk Governance Program) runs daily Curriculum Based Interactive Workshops in 8 different schools as mentioned above. BEEP work with these pupils from grade 5 until grade 12 and the workshops are currently been ran by the same pupils who are also the beneficiaries of the program but whom are in higher grades. BEEP mentors its beneficiaries from grade 8 until they get to University and Beyond. It must be said that the BEEP staff and its volunteers are made of its beneficiaries. BEEP also takes these beneficiaries on trips up Table Mountain in order for them to reconnect with nature and to connect with themselves whilst learning about the importance of looking after their own environmental hence we call ourselves Beyond Expectation Environmental Project. more >
