An Impactful Mandela Day for Sikhulekile

"Dear forgood team I hope this message finds you well.

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude and to update you on the recent connection facilitated by forgood to the Career Expo event. Firstly, let me sincerely thank you for entrusting me with such a significant task. Even though there were a few discussions and uncertainties during the planning process, I was motivated to step up to the challenge because I knew I could rely on my network and team to make this initiative a success. Thank you for allowing me to push myself and deliver on this vision.

The event itself was a great success, despite a few initial challenges. Many students arrived late, which delayed our departure, but we managed to get started on time. Once the programme got underway, the learners were actively engaged with sessions on CV writing and interview tips, had their photographs taken for professional LinkedIn profiles, and explored various career stalls.

A particular highlight for many of the students was the “Dress for Success” segment. They had the chance to select professional clothes that they could now wear to an interview-an opportunity that was both exciting and deeply meaningful for them.

From here on, my next steps are to distribute the professional photos to the students to use on their LinkedIn profiles and to help them update their CVs, which they will upload to the AI CV builder. I would also like to mention that the financial education session was delivered excellently and received well by everyone, it was truly an eye opener.

Once again, thank you for your trust and support."
