Zenzele empowering unemployed
We closed off the show with an interview with Young Qwase - Manager of Zenzele Training and Development. Zenzele is a community based project which focuses on vocational and business skills training, mentorship and small business development for the unemployed people, especially the youth from Khayelitsha and surrounding areas. To date the organization has trained more than 9000 people in woodwork, sewing, pottery and welding skills and has assisted with either finding formal employment or becoming self-employed through Zenzele’s Business Development Department which provides after care support. They are currently fundraising to buy a bigger building and would like assistance from the public. For further information you can contact Zenzele on (021) 361 1840 or send an email to zenzele@iafrica.com
