Clientele
On the 18th of May 2025, I trained the community of Mfume, South of Durban, KZN. The session was held at Mfume Primary School and the recruitment was done by Buyisiwe Linda who is the member of the South African Positive Women Ambassadors. She managed to recruit 32 participants as they always work with the community.
The Community loved the session in such a way that some of them shared their experiences of Road Accident Fund issues and insurance companies that refused to pay when their loved ones passed away. This sesssion was like an eye opener to most of them, as they had limited knowledge when it comes to financial issues.
They enjoyed the activities, most of all they enjoyed planning for a funeral, they came up with many ideas and they managed to save a lot of money by planning cheaper but dignified funerals.
If given another opportunity, I'd definitely go back this community, because they participated with open minds and enthusiasm. I'm grateful to Avo for giving me the opportunity to meet different types of people, sharing ideas of managing money better.
