COMMUNITY PROJECTS

The Big Brother Project, implemented in 2005, is designed to expose previously under-privileged Grade 11 and Grade 12 scholars to the business world and the various facets therein.

With the assistance of big business – by means of various internships – the members of the Big Brother Project are given career guidance with a “hands on” approach.

From the experiences learned through the project they are then able to make informed decisions as to their career path and acquire insightful and developed business skills ordinarily not accessible to them.

Success has been phenomenal in this area. Companies and businessmen are invited to join us in co-hosting the project with us. All management and facilitation is done by our offices. We will allocate interns to you according to your available times. Should you be interested, kindly contact Leon Dunn per email:dunnatt9@gmail.com.
