Media Statement
I am pleased to announce that one of the City of Johannesburg opportunity centres, the Thusanang Opportunity Centre in Klipfontein View, is already a hive of activity less than a mere two months since opening its doors to the public.
This was discovered after a recent oversight visit conducted at the Centre and by interacting with staff and community members in a bid to gather feedback on their experiences.
The Centre Manager, Harold Mbowana, revealed that small businesses across the Region are already taking full advantage of the services offered at the Centre.
One success story involves small business owner, Prichard Mkwebu, who recently hired three young people from Klipfontein View who were sourced from the Job seekers’ database in the Centre. They will start work at the beginning of next month, after completing training.
