In support of the Affinity Group’s mission of providing 10,000 South Africans with employment opportunities, we have partnered with some local community programmes that aim to address the unemployment rate in South Africa.
Affinity places significant emphasis on our Corporate Social Responsibility efforts and have partnered with The Sprout Foundation, who address the unemployment crisis in South Africa by assisting unemployed youth with further education and employment opportunities, including how to become job ready.
The Affinity family pride ourselves in caring for our community and those in need. We have also chosen to support an under-resourced primary school, located in near the Inanda Dam in Kwa-Zulu Natal. The school is called Isihlangusabasha Primary, meaning “shield for the youth”, which we serve by providing educational resources and establishing a fun and productive environment for the 496 learners.
Collaborating with community members on many of our projects, ensures that the local community is empowered every step of the way and that employment opportunities are being created.
