What is a country without its collective community? Recognising this, many of the members of the Sabi Sand Reserve are dedicated to the upliftment of local neighbours living in the area. Many of these communities have been defined by poverty, and a lack of opportunity to improve their standard of living.
These members have embarked on initiatives such as:
- The establishment of infrastructures to educate children, enabling them to seek a brighter future.
- The creation of homes for children orphaned by the AIDS epidemic.
- The establishment of education programmes to equip younger and older adults alike about how the pandemic of AIDS in Africa can be avoided.
|
- Employment and development opportunities.
- Provision of basic needs such as access to food, electricity, water and health services.
- Skills development projects such as beading, candle making, sewing, hat making, baking and shoe making.
- Sports training (including soccer, netball, cricket and hockey) at primary school level to help youngsters cultivate their innate physical talents.
