THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS...
manages the day-to-day business of #ProjectSchools.
After meeting the minimum criteria, our youth workers are hand-picked by the board. They are then placed in schools all over South Africa with a support system of their own (Coaches and Mentors).
Each of our youth workers are also encouraged to become part of their school in their own unique way - group activities, helping out in classrooms etc.
DID YOU KNOW?
Each youth worker is expected to write a report after meeting with any student at their schools.
​
When cases are too extreme for our youth workers to handle they are escalated to the right persons.
This will mostly vary between a Psychologist, Pastor and Social worker
HOW YOU CAN HELP US
Since 2016 #Projectschools has been an NPC that is registered as a SARS Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) with a Section 18A Certificate. This is beneficial as it could reduce individual or company tax.
You can now donate to #Projectschools and claim the donation back from your yearly tax returns.
​
Why are we asking for your donation?
#Projectschool Youth Workers receive a monthly salary for their work at the Schools. We do not burden our local schools with the salaries of our Youth Workers.
#Projectschools are solely responsible for paying these salaries. The board of directors do not receive any income from #Projectschools – they volunteer their time and effort into the dream of #Projectschools.
