by KwaDukuza Municipality<br />
to preserve his legacy. This<br />
museum attracts visitors from<br />

The AFH and Luthuli<br />
Museum aim to promote<br />
awareness of human rights<br />
with the poetry and artwork<br />

of AFH, Jan Jordaan, also<br />
facilitates school workshops<br />
that not only help, awaken<br />
and nurture the creativity in<br />
young people, but also raise<br />
awareness of human rights.<br />
These workshops have been<br />
happening since 2006 in<br />
places such as Umlazi and<br />
Phoenix. Jordaan would like<br />
the human rights to become<br />
personal to the young people<br />
and for them to be aware of<br />
human rights violations that<br />
take place around them.<br />
He believes that more can be<br />
done to the support arts just<br />
like science and business,<br />
with arts being held in the<br />
same esteem. He went on<br />
further to say, ”contrary to<br />
popular belief artists see<br />
things with a logical eye, and<br />
to expect South Africa to be<br />
a country of innovation but<br />
to ignore the arts, is a big<br />
problem” . Visit the AFH and<br />
Luthuli Museum websites to<br />
view the artworks and get<br />
involved. Ilembe community<br />
is encouraged to visit Luthuli<br />
Museum to learn about the<br />
struggle of a black man.<br />
JSS Foundation Launch at<br />
Dokodweni Beach<br />
Marvellous Zondi<br />
IT was a fruitful day at the soft launch of<br />
JSS Foundation, an organization focusing<br />
primarily at equipping people to be able to<br />
help themselves fight hunger and improve the<br />
quality of their lives.<br />
This event was held at Dokodweni Beach,<br />
between Gingindlovu and Mandeni, with<br />
speeches delivered by the co-founders Mr.<br />
Linda Zama and Ms Gugulami Zama. They<br />
are descendants of the late Aldenville Higher<br />
Primary School Principal, Jeremiah Sol Zama,<br />
whom the organization is named after. This<br />
school is situated at Groutville in KwaDukuza.<br />
The late JSS Zama was described as a self<br />
motivated individual who always tried to lay<br />
a helping hand whenever he could, especially<br />
through familiarizing community members<br />
with new and efficient ways of modern<br />
farming. He used to teach them on how to use<br />
land to their advantage which is among the<br />
reasons why the newly founded NGO caters<br />
for these needs. In simpler terms, he was a real<br />
life superhero.<br />
Linda revealed that the organization plans<br />
to expand into disaster management. In the<br />
near future an institution which will mainly<br />
focus on teaching Science and Agricultural<br />
Studies, will be established in iLembe District<br />
Municipality. Other projects that will be<br />
under the JSS Foundation are LimaZulu and<br />
Nomcabango Bursary Fund.<br />
