It's been a pleasure to deliver Hollard financial literacy trainings to the community of Mzongwana in the outskirts of Drakensburg mountains where people have been given an opportunity to work for Working For Water EPWP programme , these people are struggling with finances , banking for them is the privilege for wealthy people but after these trainings the wheel has turned for the better for them . The first group trained had savings bank accounts opened for them to earn their salaries but after the training while there the bank consultants were organized to come again and assist with transaction accounts and all thengrouos eventually opened the bank accounts for their needs , they were also interested in insurances and services rendered by Hollard , their inquiries were forwarded to the relevant people , this showed that they've taken their financial issues into consideration they're acting upon them . Big up to all the teams of Mzongwana you showed much interest in the trainings and you have changed your financial situations for the better.
After training learner's enjoying the meal we had good and activate participation of youth all of them are unemployed. It was interesting to see how they acknowledge the training to be of good help.
The same request was made by the participants to offer booklets for reference purposes. Also excited to learn how to manage their credit and the importance of spending less than what they earn in order to save for rainy days.

Fo the past week of 22 March 2021 I've been training SANBI AMADIBA ECO CHAMPS, in Baleni village in Bizana most of the participants are graduates without jobs they're interns in this programme, it was amazing and interesting to find out that these graduates are not financially wise , so training in that village made a huge impact concerning financial awareness , group was active and attended all sessions with enthusiasm made sure they do a d submit their homework even if its online research although there's network connectivity challenge , we had fruitfully debated especially around homework feedback on all modules but most interesting were Module 5 ,10 and 12 ,I had more than expected participants as all Eco champs wanted to attend the training as they saw value in it . It's always fulfilling to deliver financial literacy to people who can use it to their advantage . These Eco champs are given opportunity to start businesses based on what they've been doing within this programme . They've urged if Avocado Vision can provide them with further training on financial management. This training has made an impact on these participants and the whole Baleni community they'll share the knowledge with their families.
