Samuel Tshabalala, South Africa

After completing my college certificates, I felt drawn to the Community Development work in 2013, I immediately inquired about how can one volunteer and be part one of history rich non profit organization, dealing with poverty alleviation through skills development. I was officially appointed entry level employee 2 years later. Ever since then i spend the next 6 years holding various position within the organization. I am currently head of the academic department of the organizations where i deal with provision of quality education to the poor and marginalized sectors of our community, youth,woman and children.

The Urban Farming Projects is a community project that provides underprivileged community members with a piece of land to farm for commercial use. and the nutrition centre aspect is the place where we buy the food that is produced by these farmers from the urban farm and cook it and feed it to the 250 plus malnutritioned identified families in our community.
