SA Teen Entreprene­ur Trust founder and director

A great many sacrifices have been made by many young people in the past in their quest for economic and social freedom in South Africa.

People like Ashley Kriel and Hector Pieterson are remembered, and rightly honoured, but there were a great many others whose names did not make the headlines.

At SA Teen Entreprene­ur, we wish to inspire our youth, particular­ly those who are occupying the back seats of society because they believe there is no future for them, to write their own pages of history; to be bold and fearless in forging their own future and economic prosperity.

We wish to equip them with the requisite skills to be able to be the South African entreprene­urs of the future.

Not only can they make a positive difference by solving challenges in their communitie­s and surrounds, but also they have the power to make a positive impact on the economic landscape.
