United States of Khayelitsha

Skillz Street - Vuyo, the Community Project Coordinator, with a few graduates!
Khayelitsha
A lot of people who live in Khayelitsha love calling the township the United States of Khayelitsha.  If you ever visit, and you want an "in", definitely drop the name.  It'll get you a good bout of laughter.

Just an average day at the Centre - trying to get work done while simultaneously getting mobbed by adorable children who like to eat markers occasionally

  1. That Igwinya looks pretty good. Those restaurants could give 5 Guys a run for their money. The kids look totally engaged and the work looks compelling and fun. I hope you're enjoying your trip to Jo'burg.
