For close on four decades we have offered leading edge experiential learning in entrepreneurship, financial literacy and work readiness to create pathways for employability and job creation. Annually, we reach up to 10 000 school learners and young adults. Our programmes ensure young people are equipped with: - Entrepreneurial and life skills to enable them to start up and run their own businesses; - Understanding of financial matters and awareness of economic issues - Increased capacity to enter tertiary education studies, particularly in business subjects - Greater self-confidence and a proactive approach to shaping their future careers In our flagship Enterprise Programme, Grade 10 and 11 learners form companies and go through the entire process of starting and running businesses while the premium year-long Youth Enterprise Development Programme guides 18 to 35 year-olds through the process of establishing sustainable businesses. Through our affiliation with JA Worldwide, comprised of six regions and over 100 member countries, and the JA Africa regional network, we have access to best practices and a broad range of evolving programmes that we customise for our local context. Registered as an educational trust and subject to the governance of an independent board of directors, JASA provides its stakeholders with responsible, effective management and the tax advantages associated with an educational trust. Our impact is the direct result of our collaborations with funders, partners, alumni and volunteers and we have flexible sponsorship options ranging from funding larger-scale national programmes to one-day regional interventions, with funders gaining B-BBEE and SED points under skills, enterprise and socio-economic development.

Mentors play a critical role in inspiring our youth. Thank you Purity kariuki(MBA,CPA) for paying it forward! We see you! #Inspiringyouth
??Giving Back Through Volunteering: Empowering the Next Generation?? ??Today, I had the incredible privilege of volunteering with the Z Zurich Foundation presenting a one-hour session on Career Readiness to an inspiring group of young people aged 18 to 35 transitioning from college to the workplace. This was part of a career boot camp organized by@ JA South Africa an organization doing remarkable work in preparing youth for professional success amongst other social impact projects they run. During the session, we explored: ??The Power of Communication: Highlighting the 55/38/7 communication formula and the critical role of non-verbal communication. ??Professionalism in Emails: Discussing essential business etiquette for effective and impactful communication. ???Standing Out in the Workplace: Strategies to seize opportunities and embrace uniqueness. ??Seeing the enthusiasm and determination of these young people was truly rewarding. ?? It's a reminder that giving back through volunteering is not just about sharing knowledge—it's about inspiring potential, building confidence, and contributing to a brighter future for the next generation of leaders. ??To anyone considering volunteering: Do it! The impact you can make is immeasurable—not only for those you serve but for yourself as well. ?? Let’s empower others to dream big and step confidently into their future. Thank you to @ JA South Africa Akani Mkansi mkansi for organizing such a meaningful initiative and to Z Zurich Foundation Foundation for the opportunity to be part of it. #Volunteering #CareerReadiness #NonVerbalCommunication #Leadership #YouthEmpowerment
