Literacy and Numeracy Programme (LitNum)

Programme Overview

We believe in long term and continuous programmes that support social and economic upliftment of the previously disadvantaged communities. For this to be achieved, we implement and support programmes that are community-focused, empowering and geared towards nation building in nature. The ultimate objective is to transform society by targeting one community at a time, in this case Mpumalanga Province. The starting point of this journey is to build a solid foundation through numeracy and literacy programmes that capacitate Grades R – 4 Teachers.
