Description
The Sojourner Foundation (TSF) is a youth initiative that was registered in 2003 as a charity to become a catalyst for community cohesion. With the vision of helping communities to lead and transform their developments needs into sustainable empowerment actions, the mission of TSF is to work primarily with youth – to give persons the opportunity to be responsible for the upliftment and upkeep of their community, as a community. Under this mandate, we offer opportunities for empowerment and developing social enterprise through various programmes and projects created for and by young people with the help of strategic partnerships. Currently our programming focuses on youth empowerment through sustainable agricultural development.
