Working together we can make a real difference.
We need partners to achieve our ambitions and to realise the dreams of the talented learners in our programmes. We invite you to reach out to us to discuss how we might collaborate and work together.

The Sakhimfundo Youth Programme was founded in 2020 by a team with a deep history of working together to deal with the challenges facing young people in Alexandra Township, Johannesburg. The Sakhimfundo Board has experience in youth empowerment, education, tech-enabled learning, property development and community dynamics in Alexandra.
Phase 1 of our work includes the construction of a Dance and Performing Arts facility. It also includes a pilot after-school learning enrichment project and tech-enabled literacy programme for 40 learners. The Kadey Family Charitable Corporation have been integral in funding these foundational elements of the vision. And they are a key partner in achieving the long term vision. In addition, the Gumboots Foundation have contributed towards land acquisition and construction costs.
​
Sakhimfundo has a learning partnership with the Kliptown Youth Programme (KYP), a world-class youth empowerment programme in Soweto. One of our local community partners is Youth Stand Together (YST), a highly respected Alexandra-based dance and life skills project. The on-the-ground leadership team consists of dynamic young professionals from 'Alex'.
​
We now need your involvement to make the bigger vision a reality.
