Social Development Project:
LIFELINE/CHILDLINE (WESTERN CAPE)
R 65 000 towards the implementation
of a Youth Development Program
Iqraa Trust has contributed to the implementation of a program devised
and implemented by Lifeline/Childline which addresses the high
incidence of teen suicide. It aims to combat destructive behavioural patterns
such as drug abuse, alcohol abuse and crime, and also aims to transform and develop
the youth.
At least 200 high school learners from Elsies River, Belhar, Valhalla
Park, Bonteheuwel and Goodhope are expected to benefit from the project.
The project is expected to have a major impact on the community as
a whole, as the youth will be empowered with skills that will have
a positive impact on them, their peers, their families and
their communities for a long time to come.
