The Benefits of Higher Education and Community Investment:A college education in South Africa means empowerment, opportunity, and academic equality for township youth. Education has been proven to lift people and communities out of poverty and it is statistically proven that those with a higher degree of education have a better of quality of life and are more poised to impact and develop their own communities.
How Much Does It Cost?While different college and programs have varying fee structures, it costs around $5,000 a year for tuition, books, transportation, and involvement in our Community Impact Program
What Is The TNHF Community Impact Model?These Numbers Have Faces provides college scholarships to local Cape Town Universities for ambitious township youth who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity for higher education. In return for their college scholarship, TNHF scholars participate in the TNHF Community Impact Model in which they engage in community service, mentoring, tutoring, leadership & financial literacy training, and all commit to giving one year of tuition back into the program to assist new students attend college behind them. These Numbers Have Faces believes that education is lasting aid. An education doesn’t go away, it can’t be used up. Rather, it expands and the benefits grow exponentially. It is aid put to use forever by people within the community. Our Community Impact Model is the difference between aid and development. Aid is given out for free, but development costs something to the recipient. |
