Dear Alumni Member, At Afrika Tikkun Services we know it feels as though the lockdown will last forever. But it won’t! And when it’s over, you’ll need to be a good position to start up the job pursuit again. Why not complete a mobile course on planning for your future? funzi.mobi/learm/get-that-job will even give you a certificate once you’ve completed. Please note that the course is free but it will require use of some data (only 16-18Mbs per course). This will set you up nicely to be able to utilise some of the career development opportunities at Afrika Tikkun Services, an organisation committed to skills development and placement of young people.

Here at Afrika Tikkun Services, we understand there’s quite a bit of anxiety and uncertainty in the air relating to COVID-19. To ease this, we’d like to share some important facts with you.
Q: Our health minister warned that 60% of us will get the Coronavirus, is that true?
A: Yes, this is a worldwide prediction over the next 12 to 18 months. The spread of Coronavirus is within our control though. The most important thing we can do is keep a safe distance from others, avoid gatherings of people and continue to follow the prescribed safety and hygiene tips. Each week, we’ll send you communication clarifying information about the virus which, we hope, will help you better deal with what’s happening.
