Is easy

Is easy to give to something where one has a full control or some kind of control. Is easy to love something which doesnt respond back or talk back or doesnt have moral sense. Is easy to talk or showing some kind of intelligence than acting on the preaching. is easy to donate money where one feel has clearance of the usage of the funds and have some control of what they want to achieve. is easy to sit around and steal people 's ideas and claim they are yours. is easy to be comfortable and laze… Continue

Proud global citizen

I am proud to be part of the global system and working for FSSA. While trying to take the youth away from crime, my soccer boots and pump got stolen in Mogwase. Is nice to experience what we are trying to eradicate. The feeling of being the victim is awesome.

Mogwase

What an amazing weekend in Mogwase! I was invited to coach Holy Family Combined School for two days. They are having two big matches coming. One already played on Saturday (17/04/2010) against Senegal H.school. It was an electrifying game and crowd. These kids never trained together and it was their first serious training and their first competitive game. They lost 3-1. Couple of players asked if I can come often because they say they hardly have such time out and play sport, and the type of… Continue

Umzimkulu

Schalk and I (Doctor) are at the moment in Umzimkulu, Kwazulu-Natal (30 March-09 April 2010). We are real moved by the eagerness of the local successful youths (working in big cities like Durban.....) who are ploughing back to their communities and starting projects like Vukani Lisile Ma Africa or Wake Up,, it is sundawn Africans. Here we have the heroes like Dikela who runs the non-profitable community computer centre in Ibisi, Advocate Sandile Khuboni who is also starting a computer centre…

Siyabuswa and Jane Furse

For two weeks I was working in Siyabuswa and Jane Furse. One week in each site. I was deeply touched by the computer skills and life skills interest of youths in these two zones and how much WE are hungry to do or learn more to develop our lives to do what we want in our respective lives in rural areas. I formed so many relationships with the local sports teams, agricultural projects, JF lovelife, feeding schemes for the poor, organic projects. we spent time sharing times on the table…

Life Skills in Zimbabwe

This past week was one of those when I was proud of myself, my colleagues and our supporters. Why am I proud? Because we stuck to our guns (as a manner of speech) in including our neighbouring countries in the Youth Zone Legacy Network Program. Through the Manican participants, Mutare Utd was incorporated into the program and the twinning relationship growing on either side of the border seems to be turning into something special.



The Life-skills conducted in Zimbabwe this week was a… Continue

give it up

yesterday while standing in bumper to bumper traffic in the rain, five men opened my car door and and asked for my telehphone, with the added persuasiveness that they would shoot me if I didn't hand it over. As I reached for my phone, they saw my laptop uncovered and asked for that also, under the same conditions of compliance. Lastly was the brainwave that I should have a wallet, so in the end they ran of and kept my iphone, macbook and wallet. I kept my car and my…

Joint Training Event in Jozi

Wow! The agenda was a 2 day Peter Block Seminar where leaders from the youth zones were to be trained in community building, facilitation and teamwork.

The outcome was 3 days of bliss where 14 strangers became close friends. Representatives from Upington, Umzimkhulu, Mutare, Manica and Siyabuswa added life and wisdom to the seminar.



I trust that all the participants will write about their experiences on the pages of their respective sites, but as the team reflected on what they… Continue
