The GBL project focuses on helping SASSA child support grant beneficiaries, specifically young women aged 18 to 35 by connecting them with opportunities, including skills training, education, job placements and entrepreneurship. The project’s goal is to create an enabling environment and provide the tools they need to achieve sustainable livelihoods.
Through coaching, the GBL project helps young women identify their entrepreneurial pathway. With the right tools, they become business owners who contribute to their household and, ultimately, the community. With the investment they need, they can earn, grow and support their families.
