A few steps closer to a million changemakers...


The calendar GRS uses to do its books of accounts is aligned with the American fiscal year due to the major sponsorship we receive from the states. What does this mean? The Financial year of 2010 is over as of Sptember 30th. GRS SA set a target of 26,000 graduates to go through the Skillz curriculum(as seen above) for the year. We managed 25,400, an excellent achievement considering major disruptions from the civil servant strikes of August and early Septmber. Kilo!

Port Elizbeth managed to graduate 5,433, a few hundred off the target of 6,000 (again, the strike hurt our numbers).

GRS aims to graduate a million changemakers by 2014 around Africa, at this rate, we are well on course!

Support the Cause!

Thank you for checking out my blog. I am currently fund raising for an internship experience with Grassroot Soccer starting in August 2010. My goal is to raise $5,000 for living expenses and flights (currently at $4,392). I would appreciate your contribution to the cause!
