YOUTH OPPORTUNITY
At United Way South Africa, we help children get off to a good start and empower youth to reach their full potential by breaking down barriers to success.
Every young person deserves the opportunity to thrive.
From early childhood development and access to quality education, to skills training, mentorship, and career readiness, we are committed to walking with young people at every stage of their journey.
We believe that no child should be held back by circumstances beyond their control. That’s why we work alongside schools, communities, and partners to create safe spaces where children can learn, grow, and dream.
Through after-school programmes, literacy support, youth leadership initiatives, and life skills training, we give young people the tools they need not just to survive, but to excel in school, in work, and in life.
Key initiatives :
- Early Childhood Development (ECD)
- In-school, after-school, and summer learning
- Teacher development
- Family engagement
- Literacy development
- College and career readiness
- Leadership: Workshops, Conferences and Summit
By investing in today’s youth, we are shaping the leaders, innovators, and changemakers of tomorrow.
