Page7CEO’S reportSouth Africa is not delivering on its “RainbowNation” promise to the youth of the country.Nor is there much hope for future generationsbased on the current deliveries. Yet never has moremoney been thrown at poverty or more NGOsformed to address the needs of the economicallydisadvantaged. We are failing due to the lack ofa unifying vision, resulting in fragmented, thoughwell-meaning, efforts.Against this backdrop, <strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong> pioneers adifferent approach. Its model of developing childrenfrom “cradle to career” is achieved through anarray of partnerships, which include governmentdepartments, NGOs and local community leadership.These partnerships, combined with corporatesocial investments, empower local communities toimplement, operate and manage an integrated systemthat supports children born in poverty. Through yearsof daily support and skills development, the youthbecome capable of adding value to their lives and tothe nation.“Whatever the costof our libraries,the price is cheapcompared to that ofan ignorant nation”Walter CronkiteThe <strong>2011</strong>/12 financial year was another majormilestone, as the number of beneficiaries grew bymore than 40% from the previous year, serviced byonly an inflationary increase in operating costs. Ourpartnership base grew substantially, which meantthat we could offer a greater array of expert servicesto our communities, while relationships with variousgovernment departments continued to strengthen.Internally there was a marked shift in the competencyof management’s decision-making at project sites,which reflects effective empowerment taking placewhere it really counts – in the communities.Marc LubnerChief Executive Officer<strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>. <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong>. <strong>2011</strong>/12

We also refreshed our logo, upgradedemployment practices and built a new website withthe assistance of international experts to ensurewe carried this corporate philosophy throughoutthe organisation.“Education is the mostpowerful weaponwe can use to changethe world”Nelson MandelaAll in all, while we have not had a very easy year, wehave made tremendous progress towards ensuringthat our programmes are tailored to provide the mosteffective and efficient service to those who need itmost. Our philosophy on how this service is providedremains developmental, rather than charitable.Our desire is to continue ensuring that ourbeneficiaries keep developing into contributingmembers of society.


Page21CEO’S reportInternational reportAustraliaThe contributions by <strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong> Australia, underthe chairmanship of Richard Lubner and CEOGael McKenzie, were positive. We recognise theiroutstanding focus to raise money from privateindividuals through a direct debit initiative.Despite the difficulties in these international markets,<strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>’s exposure and profile remain positive.UK<strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong> UK once again showed exceptionalresults, contributing R22 278 357 under thechairmanship of Gary Lubner and co-chairmanship ofGiuseppe Ciucci. We acknowledge and pay tributeto the significant role Ciucci has played. He has sinceretired his co-chairmanship, as he relocated from theUK. We acknowledge the efforts of executive directorBecky Lahey-Bean for her significant contribution tothe UK office results, as well as those of Jodi Hugh inEurope for all her efforts.USADespite difficult global economic conditions, theorganisation fared well in the USA. A restructuring ofthe board resulted in a passionate, professional office.With Brian Anderson assuming the role of chairman,we saw increases in the levels of fundraising andmarketing by him and his wife, Diana. In addition,Robyn Stalson’s employment in Texas resulted inimproved results.“<strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>has proven that ithas the ability toreach sections ofour disadvantagedpopulation atgrassroots level.

Page23CEO’S reportFundraising – who makes it happenWith the world economy on a precipice,the <strong>2011</strong>/12 financial year has beenboth challenging and rewarding for us.Despite the difficulties faced, we were able tosubstantially raise the funding required to ensurethat our development work in the communitiescontinued unabated.We continue to work as <strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong> in communitiesbecause you have enabled us to do so. We are thevehicle through which, collectively, we achieve ourcommon goal of shaping the future of South Africa inorder that it may continue to be a home for all and acountry of which we are all proud.Like you, our valued partners, we are determined notto relent until the most desperate and vulnerable inour society, symbolised in our context as “children intownships”, are given every opportunity to achievetheir potential and ultimately become contributingmembers of society.As <strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>, we have realised from our ownexperiences that government alone cannot beexpected to provide the ideal environment andresources to successfully empower communities inSouth Africa in order to develop new generationsof productive citizens. The challenge is too largeand too broad, and so successful interventionsneed to be realised through strong partnershipsbetween government, the private sector, communityorganisations and NGOs.The solutions must include a mix of money/financingand in-kind contributions that directly target theneeds of children in a vulnerable environment.Our model is focused on providing solutions to allthe elements (physical, educational, health, social,psychosocial and nutritional), which enables thedevelopment of a child or youth to be successfullyachieved through strategic partnerships.Although we are still far from achieving the level ofsuccess to which we aspire, we have neverthelessexperienced tremendous successes towards thesocial and economic upliftment of the disadvantagedcommunities. We were able to raise R58.4-million,falling short of the collection target of R65.7-million,primarily as a result of funding we had budgeted forfrom the National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund,which was not forthcoming, as well as tighteningcorporate social investment budgets. Many thanks toour loyal partners, donors and NGOs alike.The essence of strategic partnerships is that allparties bring their unique expertise to the table,complementing each other’s abilities, with the goalbeing achieving the change we envision. So whetheryou have skills you wish transferred to the community,or resources that can enable us to build Centres ofExcellence or IT/internet solutions, or any donationsin-kind and/or monetary contributions, we urge youto come forward and partner with us in tackling themultifaceted challenges. This support will enable usto overcome and succeed in our efforts to break thecycle of poverty in our communities.<strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>’s goal for <strong>2012</strong>/13 is to develop acombined total of 18 000 children, youths and familiesin Delft, Alexandra, Diepsloot, Orange Farm, Mfuleni,and Braamfontein. Please join us and continue tosupport us as we make this dream and our slogan, “AHeart for Children” a reality.HA RosenbergExecutive DeputyChairmanOnyi NwaneriNational DevelopmentManager<strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>. <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong>. <strong>2011</strong>/12

Growing social discontent and frustration,particularly among youth with a vision oftheir future. Fragmented CSI spend limits impact.2. Donor fatigue – as a result of corporates beingoverloaded with requests from NPOs for funds.3. Corporate economic issues – corporates arereducing their CSI spend.opened and expanded to cater for all our holisticdevelopment services and will incur an additionalR8 100 000 of operating expenditure.10. The need to retain current operators andto scale up interventions with local communitiesrequire reliable committed funds from donorswho have a shared interest in theoutcomes achieved.4. Erratic funding from government departments andnational lotteries make planning difficult andtherefore the scope is limited.5. Understanding the necessity of having at leastsix months’ working capital reserves on thebalance sheet, given the unpredictable nature offundraising and the need to secure 550 staffmembers and about 16 000 beneficiaries, who areserviced monthly.6. The need to institutionalise the <strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>holistic model to ensure sustainability.7. Changing broad-based black economicempowerment criteria directly affects CSI spendas funds flow out of social spend and into for-profitenterprise development.8. International funding is becoming difficult as thereis a perception of a lack of cohesion betweenNGOs and government sectors.9. In <strong>2012</strong>/13, two new community centres will be

Page28<strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong>. <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Review</strong>. <strong>2011</strong>/12Financial director’S REPORTWhy we are effectiveReflectionsAn important objective of any financial directorstriving to contribute to an organisation’sstrategic goals with a positive outcome andmeaningful result is to assess where we havecome from, what we have achieved, how we canimprove on what we have, and where we aregoing. All this hinges on our financial and humanresources, which, due to the nature of socialinvestment, are unfortunately limited.Our evolved vision of providing a holisticdevelopmental model from “cradle to career” fordisadvantaged youth is a reality, where today:• We have 15 681 beneficiaries at our centres. How dowe know this? We implemented a computer-basedsystem to track all beneficiaries who arrive at ourcentres. Our aim is to have a management toolto assist us ascertain our impact on that individual,determine the effectiveness of our services, indicateour cost-effectiveness and efficiency, and ensure wekeep track of the beneficiaries’ day-to-day living. Forexample: if a beneficiary does not come to ourcentre for food in three days, the system will flag thisand we can send a support worker to see ifeverything is in order.• Our centre programmes are running at full capacityand we cannot expand unless we build new centres.• The past year has seen us build our sixth communitycentre, four having been built in the past three years.• The <strong>2012</strong>/13 year will be a time to consolidate andlet our centres focus on being Centres of Excellencethat can be classified as training anddevelopmental centres.• Our focus in the ensuing year is on using ourCentres of Excellence to provide our intellectualproperty to other service centres within the areasin which we operate. This will improve their impact,make them more sustainable and allow us growthwithout huge infrastructure costs. For example, inOrange Farm there are more than 30 informalcrèches. We, in effect, franchise one of the crècheswith our <strong>Afrika</strong> <strong>Tikkun</strong> standards and procedures.We will raise funding for this once we have coveredour own community centre operational costs.• The past year has seen us spend R23 100 000primarily on our Mfuleni and inner-city centres• Our six Centres of Excellence incurred operationaland head office supporting services ofR43 770 000 to allow and provide our holistic careservices as detailed in the report.• Each month we have between 5 000 and 9 700interventions that cost us R6 281 930 per annum.An intervention entails our employees visiting thecommunity areas in which we operate to providefamily support and health services, in the form ofinoculation, food packages or shack services.• It’s been an exciting year but fundraising has beenchallenging. We raised R58 400 000, which was shortof our expectations. However, we did not receivefunding from the National Lottery Distribution TrustFund this year.This year is exciting as we will focus on quality and onensuring that our aim to be professional Centres ofExcellence is not only maintained, but exceeded.Arnold FormanFinancial Director“The first wealthis health”Ralph Waldo Emerson
