Green Futures College offers accredited skills training in ecotourism, hospitality and indigenous horticulture alongside work readiness curricula, first aid certification, chainsaw accreditation and computer end-user skills. 

60% of under 25 year olds, and 40% of under 35 year olds in South Africa are unemployed, but your donation will directly affect the prospects of employment for youth in the Overstrand.
