About us
Our Story
The Young Entrepreneur is a program to help you realise your dream. When you love what you do, you never work a day in your life.
All of us who work here to coach and tutor you come from a background where we had to create our futures out of nothing. We read in the Bible on Ps 82:6 I have said, Ye are gods, and all of you are children of the most High. Everything you see around you was created by people that believe that what the prophet Asaph said thousands of years ago. And we have the passion and desire to pass on what we have learned in our lives as we created organisations that became very successful. All the tools we used and our strategies are at your disposal as we tutor you for the next 4 to 6 months.
Our mission
We are here to empower you to give your best. This program will provide you with the life skills you need to succeed. In addition, it will create in you the skills to become a leader. We were hoping you could take this and make it a success in your life. So whether you want to excel in your studies, sport or career, this is for you.
