Sanlam has come on the right time to the people of Villiersdorp, this time of the year people are being scammed in different ways, they really enjoyed doing this training,especially those who are working at the farms, lot of scamming are happening in farms, people are joining things that they are not aware of, but they gained a lot of experience from Sanlam training. The challenge in our community is, the vanue are closed due to Covid, the struggle of organizing the training on your own is one of the most important thing that Avocado should look at, in the area of Villiersdorp, when the deligates attend the training they expect the payment, the reason is most of the training held in Villiersdorp people are getting money for attending the training. Thank you Avocado and Sanlam for taking care of our communities.

The youth delegates showed so much energy to the extend that they admitted that the training should be taken to high schools. They explained that content of the training is never taught at high school particularly insurance related content. They mention that one only gets insurance content when an insurance rep or agent approaches you with intention of selling you a policy.

RCS MFS&MM took place in worksite for the following organisation's, JAG, WPDI and Saartjie Baartmaan. For all 3 organisation's sessions went well and active participation as well as interaction. JAG organisation was trained on Module 10 (Young People and Money) and WPDI and Saartjie Baartman was trained on Money Fo Sho. They appreciated the training and they would like to have more trainings on Consumer Financial Education. Most of them knew about budgeting but the challenge was to draft it. They also learnt a lot on saving for their goals. It was a great experience to conduct a training for all 3 organisation's whom are sponsored by RCS. The highly recommended that I should come back to do more trainings.
