Before launching Reality Learning SA, we recognized a crucial need among local youth for a safe space to learn life skills. Opening our home on Saturday mornings in Athlone, we provided breakfast and engaged in conversations. It was clear they needed both basic life skills and workplace abilities. This fueled our commitment to make a positive impact. The journey continued with Reality Learning SA, supporting a creche in Nozamo, Strand, and collaborating with a school in McGregor – Buffelskloof Primary School on various initiatives. Our CSI efforts include stationery, food, beanie and scarf drives, shoes for winter, alcohol awareness in Sir Lowry Village, Child Protection Week activities in Firlands, Healthy Choices (teenage pregnancy prevention), and much more. Why do we do it? Because we believe in sowing the seeds for a better future. Our intent is, to enable and elevate the life inspirations of disadvantaged Youth in our Province.
