In a promising development towards the end of 2021, the IDC (Industrial Development Corporation) launched an advertisement seeking implementing partners for the Social Employment Fund.  Siyakholwa applied and emerged successful in securing this opportunity.  Our implementation journey began in June 2023, focussing on the vibrant Eastern Cape region.  As an implementing partner, Siyakholwa was offered a remarkable 1000 work opportunities.  Leveraging our existing expertise as a Franchisor of SmartStart, actively involved in early learning initiatives, it made perfect sense for the bulk of these opportunities to be centred around early learning.  Siyakholwa is committed to making a lasting impact in the lives of individuals and communities, and through this programme, we are excited to further our mission of promoting quality early childhood education in the region.
