IN Life and Truth
Hopelessness, poverty and a failing education system set many young South Africans on a path to despair and crime. What if a young person chose to rise above their situation and through determination, self belief and hard work become someone great? Their story and their example will inspire their community and other young learners to do the same.
We aim to instill the necessary qualities in young people to enable them to be significant, successful and inspiring!
Impilo Neqiniso is Zulu for Life and Truth! Impilo Neqiniso was started in 2010 to fill the gap in practical life skills training in local South African schools. With so much focus on the failing academic education system in South Africa, less and less attention is given to important life lessons such as leadership development, values formation, goal setting, interdependence and many other vital life skills. Learners spend 1-5 days with us and are challenged to change their perspective, seek a new purpose and to strive to reach their potential.
We partner with, support and enhance existing organisations working with youth in the wider rural and township communities. This ensures positive follow up and continual growth through long term mentoring of the youth by their leaders long after they have completed our programme.
With an emphasis on Christian values we use the tried and tested method of experiential learning to enhance and cement the learning experiences of the participants. The outdoor, camping environment has proved to be a very effective tool in helping people change an often entitled and victimized mindset.
We recently ran camp programmes specifically for school teaching staff that have also been very successful and effective in their outcomes, multiplying the impact of the programme to more learners.
We make use of the fantastic facilities at Skogheim Christian Conference Centre and run our administration through Skogheim Christian Trust.
All donations go directly to cover the running costs of these programmes.
