Help Down Syndrome South Africa by Donating laptops for for our National self-advocates and Skills development
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
We have self-advocates in Johannesburg, Limpopo, Witbank, PE and Kimberley that are unable to join our self-advocacy due to lack of access to Wifi and no laptop / PC. We also have skills development programmes currently being run in Limpopo and Kimberley, they have a desperate need for laptops and wifi in order to access more resources.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
