Our mission is to increase the percentage of learners who write the final pure Mathematics exam in Grade 12 in South Africa to 60%. These learners are to obtain at least a 50% pass mark. This will improve their vocational prospects and afford them many more career paths in the future. This will, in turn, produce a robust workforce with a variety for the South African economy to choose from, thus providing a sustainable solution to the unemployable youth crisis. The result will be a growing economy with a population that produces an ever-increasing buying power.

The Underdog Project aims to transforms the lives of at-risk youth in Cape Town, South Africa, by pairing them with shelter dogs in a unique program that builds empathy, leadership, and emotional intelligence. Through weekly training sessions, youth learn to care for and communicate with the dogs, improving their resilience and employability. Simultaneously, the dogs benefit from the training and love, increasing their chances of adoption. Together, they foster growth and compassion in their communities. Challenge: Youth in Cape Town's underserved communities face barriers like poverty, violence, and unemployment, with limited access to safe spaces or life-skill development opportunities. Many struggle with trauma, low self-esteem, and a lack of positive role models. At the same time, shelter dogs experience neglect and limited chances of adoption. This dual problem impacts the youth's ability to thrive and the dogs' opportunities for a better life, creating a cycle of disconnection and loss. Solution: The Underdog Project addresses these challenges by pairing at-risk youth with shelter dogs in a supportive, therapeutic program. Youth learn critical life skills like empathy, responsibility, and leadership by training and caring for the dogs. The program fosters emotional growth in the youth and prepares the dogs for adoption by teaching them positive behaviors. Together, youth and dogs build bonds that enable healing, growth, and a stronger sense of purpose for both. Long-Term Impact: This project creates a ripple effect of change. Youth develop resilience, employability skills, and leadership qualities that enable them to inspire positive change in their communities. Graduates often mentor their peers, spreading lessons of empathy and non-violence. Shelter dogs benefit from training and care, increasing their adoption chances and reducing shelter overcrowding. Over time, the program contributes to building more compassionate communities where both humans and animals thrive.

Takalani children's home was established in May 1988 by Rev P. L. Van Langeveld together with the Reformed Church Synod Soutpansberg. The home started with only 11 children in total. Rev Van Langeveld was serving as a spiritual Pastor at Siloam Hospital (His service was to give pastoral care to the patients at Siloam Hospital). He came up with a vision of establishing a home for the abandoned, abused and orphaned children. He then approached the local Reformed churches under Synod Soutpansberg. The Synod welcomed the idea to establish a home for those children and appointed the board of directors to manage the home. The home was built near Siloam Hospital since most children were found wandering there, though children from different areas are also considered due to the need. The hospital social worker, the late Mr. Landela played a very crucial role in ensuring proper legal processes were adhered to. TCH accommodates a maximum of 80 children and currently, the home has 40 girls and 30 boys. Takalani children's home objectives: -To provide appropriate accommodation for the children who are in need of care under the age of 18 years. -To provide a healthy diet and appropriate clothing for the children in the care of TCH. -To promote healthy development by meeting medical needs and educational needs of the children in the care of TCH. - To create awareness of the needs and rights to all children in the care of TCH and to everyone associated with TCH. -To advocate, promote and support legislative and other measures designed to meet the needs and the rights of children. -To create opportunities for the children to explore their full creative and physical potential, as well as discover their talents and possible career path. -To take steps to remove conditions detrimental to the emotional and physical well-being of the children in the care of TCH.

The organisation reflects its members' shared concern for the future of humanity and the planet. The association sees its task as acting as an independent, global catalyst for change. The objectives of the Association are therefore: to identify the key issues that are critical to the future of humanity; to evaluate alternative scenarios for the future and assess risks, choices and opportunities through integrated and forward-looking analyses; to develop and propose practical solutions to the identified challenges; to communicate new insights and knowledge from these analyses to decision-makers in the public and private sectors, as well as to the wider public; to stimulate public debate and effective action to improve the prospects for the future of humanity and the planet. The Association's activities are guided by the following three complementary principles: 1. the need to adopt a global, systems-oriented perspective in analysing the problems facing the modern world, recognising that the increasing interdependence of nations and the globalisation of previously local problems create challenges that are beyond the capacity of individual countries. 2. the need for a comprehensive, holistic approach in order to gain a deeper understanding of the complexity and interconnectedness of both current problems and practical solutions, in political, social, economic, technological, environmental, psychological and cultural terms, which the association refers to as the 'world problematique'. 3. the need to emphasise transdisciplinary and long-term perspectives, which are all too often neglected by governments and other decision-makers, and to focus on those decisions, strategies and measures that will determine the fate of present and future generations. The aim is to arouse public interest and provide responsible decision-makers with a solid basis for formulating and implementing future-oriented measures. The association does not pursue any commercial purposes and does not seek to make a profit.

Every day, lives are changed by a single, selfless act - the gift of organ donation. Among those waiting for transplants are 2 groups of people: those who die waiting and those who receive the gift of life. Our work raises awareness of the urgent need for organ and tissue donors while helping recipients who have overcome the impossible to live life to the fullest. These individuals have faced life's greatest challenges; they are advocates for the cause but need resources, education and community. Transplant recipients have a unique opportunity to advocate for organ donation and raise awareness. Physical activity plays a crucial role in the recovery and long-term health of recipients. When recipients compete in world events, they demonstrate to the world what can be achieved through the gift of organ donation. Additionally, our programs provide recipients with community, tools, and resources to address the many challenges they face, leading to an increased quality of life. The WTGF promotes amateur sport amongst recipients, living donors and donor families; promoting the study of transplantation; educating the public and raising awareness of the world shortage of donor organs; sharing new knowledge from biological/clinical studies; promotion of mental and moral improvement for recipients, living donors and donor families; fostering international friendship and relations.
