Standford the builder


Standford is a member of the Masakhane community who has used his skills as a builder to employ not only himself, but a team of 4 men from within the community of Masakhane.

Standford started doing small building jobs about 5 years ago. His work is of such a high standard that he now employs 4 people permanently and several more on a casual basis.

Standford drew up the preliminary plans for the proposed community centre at Masakhane and staked out the site to show delegates from SAB where the proposed centre would be built.

With some life skills and vocational training e.g. Small Bussiness Management, Standford's potential as an entrepeneur could be fully realised. Through development of Standford's existing skills as builder and entrepeneur he could play a vital role in development of this community.

  1. Hi Sonja,
    Ek sal graag wil weet hoe die life skills gaan werk.Verduidelik bietjie meer.Kom mense van buite dit aanbied of maak julle gebruik van vaardighede in die gemeenskap.Dit lyk na 'n omvattende program, oor hoe 'n lang tyd word dit aangebied?Hoeveel mense kan deelneem?
    En laastens,ek het die blog adres vir Johan Botha by Momentum gegee .

  2. Excellent read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on this topic. And he actually bought me lunch because I found it for him. So I should thank you for the free lunch I got.
