Skeem GP Foundation is a 100% black-owned NPO that operates nationally. We are focused on developing the youth and those living with disabilities through availing educational programs and encouraging the youth to stay at school in order for them to realise their dreams. As part of innovation and the passion for creating equal opportunities for all, we have developed an Entrepreneurship Skills, Inspiration Workshop and Mentorship Program that focus solely on paving the way for our youth to realise their potential. Our main focus areas in order to make a difference are Social Skills, Youth Empowerment, Career Guidance, Financial Fitness and Corporate Readiness. All these programs are tailor-made to tackle the day-to-day issues that the youth of today are faced with and how to live past their current situations and dream BIG.
Vision
To prepare all youth in South Africa to become responsible, participating citizens and leaders who are guided by strict and consistent moral and ethical codes.

In so doing we help build youth that will be responsible citizens and help build a better South Africa.
