Celebrating Soweto Youth at the Year-End Function

December 18th, 2024

Two pictures: the left one shows a big table with children seated around it, participating in a YoPA activity, with the facilitator. The right one shows some of the YoPA material: hats, certificates, t-shirts and gifts.

On December 4th, 2024, the Soweto Youth Council (ages 12-17) gathered at the Jabulani Safe-Hub for a special end-of-year event hosted by the YoPA team.

The event was a heartfelt farewell, thanking the youth for their incredible participation in co-creating the project. Certificates of participation were handed out along with thoughtful gifts, and everyone enjoyed refreshments in a warm, celebratory atmosphere.

The youth expressed their gratitude, sharing how much they valued their involvement and how the project has become meaningful for their community’s future.

A big thank you to the Soweto Youth Council for their dedication and to our host partner, Jabulani Safe-Hub, for making this day memorable!
