If you are interested in following our new combined stream, you can scroll to the bottom of the page and enter your up-to-date e-mail address in the "Follow By E-mail" field. And if you still want to view project-specific content, you can choose a project from the drop-down menu at the top! All of our old posts from this blog have also migrated there as well in a full archives.

We hope that this new platform will be incredibly easy for you to use and also show you the full scope of the exciting happenings here at Thembalitsha! If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at any time - we love hearing from our supporters.

New Class, New Project Manager, New Year

Our graduating Class of 2014

Themba Training began 2015 with a joyful Graduation of the 2014 MBA Students on 4 February. Congratulations to our students on their amazing progress - we can't wait to see what you do with your newly acquired skills! Along with our 2014 graduates, the teachers and students took some time to say goodbye to Frances Fuchs, who has been the project manager at Themba Training. Frances' investment in the project is undeniable and we know she will be sorely missed. But we are happy to still have her in the Thembalitsha family as she moves to be the manager of Mama Themba! We also want to welcome on board Portia Motjuwadi who has been active in Themba Training for several years and is stepping up as Project Manager.

The new, all-female Class of 2015 kicked off on the 9 Feb with 20 new students. Welcome, ladies! We're overjoyed to have you joining us for the microbusiness training this year. And this class will hopefully be able to take advantage of our newly spruced up Computer Room, awaiting Internet connection from Telkom. This addition of technology will allow our students to learn the in's and out's of computers and typing and help them to be fully equipped for business in the 21st Century!
