Capri

Innovation. Ubuntu. Trots.

Capiri's vision & mission:

Capri strives to create a home away from home for our members where they can feel comfortable to express themselves, their views and perspectives as well as creating a space for them to make lifelong connections with other people on campus. We strive to generate strong leaders through our broad spectrum of leadership development and a large variety of co-curricular activities that we offer. This allows our members to grow in their spheres of choice so that we can create well-connected and strong citizens that can make a positive impact on our society. We strive for innovation through diversity.

What are we currently doing?

Greater Stellenbosch Development Trust (GSDT) - Vision Afrika - This initiative provides support for cultural and educational projects in and around Stellenbosch and bridges the divides in surrounding areas. Capri PSO hopes to work with this organization to volunteer at one of their partner projects, Vision Afrika – a primary school, and work with them on a weekly basis after University classes start. Vision Afrika Primary school is a pre-primary and foundation phase private school in Kayamandi.

**Capri PSO may collaborate with Wilgenhof residence to start an educational outreach programme, so this programme with Vision Afrika fits into that idea as well.
