World Literacy Day Celebrated with local flair

by Belinda Pheto

An SABC reporter was quoted as saying, "A woman’s chances of getting raped in South Africa are higher than being able to read."

This are some of the shocking stats when it comes to the literacy levels of this country.

This is why the Kingsway Centre of Concern took a stand and launched an initiative to try and bring change to these kinds of literacy statistics in South Africa.

Thursday, 8 September was World Literacy Day, and the Kingsway Centre of Concern made sure that this day was celebrated locally.

They had an awareness campaign held at Clearwater Mall.

Hope rises for the future generation in Zandspruit Informal Settlement

While politicians and others are still fighting about service deliveries and related issues in this community, there is hope for the children of Zandspruit, thanks to a school like Kingsway Christian School in Randpark Ridge where - at least - 300 learners of this community receive private-school quality education at affordable prices. On Thursday 21st July it was not only Kingway but the broader business community of Johannesburg that showed their concern for education in SA by attending a memorable event in aid of Kingsway’s new Development Project in Zandspruit.
