Care Continuity Challenge Initiative was the first initiative of Fair Life Africa Foundation. It was focused on street children, providing first CARE, then CONTINUITY (which is rehabilitation), and addressing the CHALLENGEs in their lives, to enable them stay off the streets for good.
We ran a three-month pilot programme, which supported nine children, before opening our home for an academic year to 12 children we had accessed so we could reunite them with their families. However, the initiative was discontinued as the outcomes didn’t encourage additional funding.
The programme is divided into four main pathways to success. These are:
THE ACADEMIC – Academically bright children will be encouraged and empowered to complete their education, and ultimately supported into employment, to become independent and successful;
THE APPRENTICE – Capable children with skills in one or more vocation, who may not be academically strong, will be encouraged and empowered to develop their vocational skills and achieve relevance;
THE ARTIST – Talented children with artistic gifts will be enabled to perfect their talents, while still encouraged to develop other skills and complete their education, to achieve their potential and succeed;
THE ATHLETE – Children talented in sports will be enabled to grow their abilities, while still encouraged to develop other skills and complete their education, in order to achieve their potential and succeed
We are looking for skilled professionals, mostly in the technology and social relations fields, to join our able team and help us achieve our objectives.
