Story

It was quite a difficult time to train,KZN was going through a lot,floods were the worse,people were moved to community halls,the same ones that we use for our trainings,which became a problem to find training venues,the floods had done damage to most venues that we have previously used.eventually found a garage where we did our sessions in,I was training people from an organization called "let's read together",they welcomed the training with such hunger to learn,they came out in numbers,even though the weather had not cleared properly,but their hunger to learn and empower themselves,motivated them a lot.As a Facilitator, I also learnt a lot from them,I grew a whole lot in terms of information.The most valued part of the training to them,was the savings and investments parts,they showed so much interest, some of them have even started investing in their children's futures, they have been calling me asking for clarification again.It gives me pleasure and hope that what we do in our communities has a huge impact and it shows.
