Lets do it 2gether 4 EDUCATION
Lets do it 2gether 4 EDUCATION is a registered Non Profit Organisation (NPO 175-323)
currently operating solely from self
generated income.
The
organisation was founded to provide FREE Math, Science and Accounting tuition
to grade 12 learners, however due to the challenges in Education in our
schools, there has been a huge demand from parents and learners for us to
extend our programme to provide tuition to learners from grades 9 to grade 12.
Our tuition
programme is provided FREE to learners but is structured to benefit, parents,
learners, tutors and the community as a whole.
Our tutors
are University students who have student loans or are paying for their studies
through part time employment. These tutors are paid by us to tutor the
learners, Tutors are remunerated by paying them one third in cash and the other
two thirds are paid directly to their University fees
or student loan account to help them fund their own studies.
Some of our main activities include:
·
FREE Math, Science, Biology and Accounting Tuition
to high school, with primary focus to help increase the matric pass rate,
improve learners pass percentages and help learners gain access to tertiary
education.
·
Provide Financial support to economically
disadvantaged learners who cannot afford school fees; school shoes;
stationery or uniforms, etc.
