A hand up not a hand out

Lulamile, Ground UP Barista Khayelitsha Graduate

"My life has changed as I was sitting at home doing nothing, then I did the course, graduated and soon after I got a job, so that has changed my life a lot. Now I can manage to support my family with their needs. I would like to say thank you to Learn to Earn for the skill."

Lungisile, Bake for Profit Khayelitsha Graduate

"Learn to Earn helped boost my self-esteem, I was always shy and had difficulty in interacting with other people, but I left Learn to Earn having friends."

Ngozi, Shop Assistant Khayelitsha Graduate

"Learn to Earn prepared me for my current job because now I am confident when talking with other staff members and it is easy to approach our clients because of the customer service module we did. I understand myself better and now I believe in myself."

Nonela, Bake for Profit Khayelitsha Graduate

"My confidence was boosted, and I have learnt many things like food costing and how to manage my stock. I'm feeling bold and courageous, I'm trusting of myself, and I was encouraged to be creative and be consistent in my marketing."
