Saturday the 4th of July will see a gathering of some of South Africa’s top universities, colleges, companies and educational bodies at the Nazeema Isaacs Library in Khayelitsha. The day will provide an opportunity for IkamvaYouth’s learners, volunteers (most of whom are university students) and the wider Khayelitsha community to gain insight into and understanding of post-school career and study opportunities. “Our vision for this Indaba is to inform and inspire these talented and committed young people about how to achieve their career dreams,” says Luyanda Kota, Director of IkamvaYouth Western Cape. “We’re grateful to the organisations for spending this day with us. This personal interaction will give our learners the chance to discover what it really takes to have a career in their field of interest and better insights on where to study.” Everyone is welcome to join us on the day! Please find the full programme for the day's activities here.

Parents Day in MakhazaSubmitted by admin on Thu, 2009-06-18 22:45.
On the 23rd of May we hosted a Parents meeting for our ikamva learners at the Chris Hani High School nearby our offices. The parents meeting was very well attended - we had 50 parents in attendance! Luyanda Kota welcomed the parents and gave them background information about what we do. He also shared the details about what we intend to do during the holiday programme and more generally motivated the parents to engage in their children's education. Ex-learners and volunteers were also in attendance and shared their stories with the parents.
Ikamva Volunteers - Who are they and what do they do?Submitted by Khanyi on Fri, 2009-06-12 16:42.
Volunteers are regarded as people who willingly work without remuneration. Like everyone else they get up early in the morning to go to work. The difference is that they will not be reimbursed for their labour. Can you imagine yourself getting up in the morning, kicking your warm blankets to travel in what is now a very unfriendly Cape weather to a place where you will not be paid? We have decided to visit these extraordinary people to find out why they put themselves through this.
