About Us
masifunde learner developmment NPC is a public benefit organisation with almost 20 years of experience. Our programmes are implemented by a team of young, motivated professionals. Our Vision
masifunde's work is driven by the vision of a united society in which everyone is empowered through high-quality education to participate pro-actively and confidently in societal issues and thereby in

itiating positive change in their own lives and the lives of others. Our Mission
Our services include high-quality programmes for learners from three to 32 years of age. What makes our work unique is that our approach always centers around the individual - for all age groups. The interventions are always holistic, trying to take into account all aspects of the children and youth in our programmes: home and social environment, different forms of education, personal growth and individual talents and interests. We believe firmly in peer-education: That's why most of our activities work towards outreach events which activate our learners to share their findings within their social environment. This ensures that our programmes have a community-wide footprint and contribute systematically to the creation of an active civil society within Walmer Township and beyond

Over the past years, we have developed and successfully tested our community development models. Today, we proudly see components of our work being used as best practice and showcase examples. Our work in Walmer Township is open source and we gladly share it with and show it to interested stakeholders from various fields. Like-minded NGOs are most welcome to contact us to become implementation and replication partner of programme components.

This week, we are excited to welcome all Grade 9 classes from Walmer High School to our centre for a workshop focused on subject choices and career guidance πŸŽ“βœ¨

Choosing the right subjects is an important step in shaping future opportunities, and through these sessions, learners are being encouraged to think about their strengths, interests, and career aspirations. By exposing young people to different career pathways and helping them understand how their subject choices can impact their future, we hope to empower them to make informed and confident decisions.

At masifunde, we believe that every learner deserves the guidance and support needed to unlock their potential and build a future they are proud of.

Kule veki siyavuya ukwamkela bonke abafundi bakaGrade 9 baseWalmer High School kwiziko lethu ukuze bathathe inxaxheba kwiworkshop ejolise ekukhetheni izifundo nasekukhokelweni ngomsebenzi wexesha elizayo πŸŽ“βœ¨

Ukukhetha izifundo ezifanelekileyo linyathelo elibalulekileyo ekwakheni amathuba exesha elizayo, yaye ngezi seshoni abafundi bayakhuthazwa ukuba bacinge ngamandla abo, izinto abanomdla kuzo, kunye namaphupha abo omsebenzi. Ngokubabonisa iindlela ezahlukeneyo zomsebenzi nokubanceda baqonde indlela ukhetho lwezifundo olunokuchaphazela ngayo ikamva labo, sinethemba lokubaxhobisa ukuze benze izigqibo ezinolwazi nezithembeleyo.

KwaMasifunde, siyakholelwa ukuba wonke umfundi ufanele ukufumana inkxaso nesikhokelo esimnceda avule amandla akhe aze akhe ikamva anokuzingca ngalo.
