Help APD Nelson Mandela Bay - Empowering Abilities by donation sanitary pads and/or toiletries for disadvantaged learners within our skills programs
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
We focus on creating positive change in the lives of persons with disabilities by providing advancement in vocational skills and social development, employment and enterprise development opportunities for unemployed, disadvantaged youth and the wider community. We currently offer accredited skills and social development training programs in: • Sewing and Manufacturing (Accredited) • Wholesale & Retail (Accredited) • Early Childhood Development (Accredited) • New Venture Creation (Accredited) • Business Principles & Generic Management (Accredited) • NDINGAKWAZI Personal Development, Digital Advancement and Life Skills An ongoing challenge we face is absenteeism of our young women on the program during their menstrual cycle this is due to them not having funds to purchase sanitary pads therefore they stay out of class. This has a very negative impact on their progress within thier program which can lead to them dropping our or not achieveing thier qualifiation. We also notice many learners have personal hygiene issues due to lack of basic toiletries, this can cause embarrassment and unpleasantness within the class, we would like to avoid this and therefore seek assistance in sourcing toiletries as well as sanitary pads for our learners. Your support and assistance will be so greatly appreciated.
