THANK YOU!

In acknowledgement of the effort by the keynote speakers and hosts of the AfricaSIF.org ESG

Masterclass 2012 Cape Town event, AfricaSIF.org is making a donation of

R1,000 for scholarshipsin your honour to NETwork, a non-profit organisation

which runs transformational job readiness programmes to equip people with the skills and

confidence needed to find employment.

NETwork is a programme which seeks to address the needs of people in overcoming the obstacles faced when unemployed in Cape Town and empowering

them to become economically active. Believing that meaningful work gives people dignity and hope, we recognise that most people are not seeking a hand-out, but rather the opportunity to forge their own future. NETwork’s vision is to see unemployed people established and included in the formal economy. We build bridges between both the unemployed and employers, empowering the

unemployed and connecting them to networks of employment opportunities.
