SCOUTS <strong>South</strong> Africa<br />
Changing lives and fulfilling potential.<br />
<strong>South</strong> Africa<br />
SCOUTS <strong>South</strong> Africa (SSA) changes lives by providing<br />
youth with education, skills, mentorship, values, opportunities,<br />
resources, and safe places to be kids, so they can<br />
get out of poverty and have a better future for themselves<br />
and their families. However, many <strong>South</strong> <strong>African</strong>s<br />
cannot afford to participate. For every R42 donated we<br />
help a youth experience Scouting!<br />
Who is SCOUTS <strong>South</strong> Africa?<br />
For over 100 years, SSA’s programmes have shaped the<br />
lives and unleashed the potential of hundreds of thousands<br />
of <strong>South</strong> <strong>African</strong>s by following a learning-by-doing<br />
programme. Central in the Scouting programme is the<br />
continuous transference of values such as honesty, loyalty,<br />
responsibility and respect; all aimed at empowering<br />
the youth to govern their own individual behaviour and<br />
to develop strong leadership skills that will equip them<br />
to be of service to others and to their communities.<br />
All youth (boys and girls) aged seven to 35 are eligible<br />
to join. Our adult leaders are all volunteers.<br />
Currently, 90% of the 190 000 members come from<br />
townships and rural areas. SSA’s programmes address<br />
the objectives set out in the National Development Plan.<br />
Scouting complements the school and family roles and<br />
fills unmet needs by:<br />
• Equipping youth with practical leadership, communication<br />
and vocational skills to embrace future education<br />
and career opportunities<br />
• Combating poverty and addressing hunger alleviation<br />
through agricultural skills development<br />
• Developing youth to be positive citizens and contributors<br />
to their communities and country<br />
• Enhancing HIV/Aids awareness and first-aid capabilities<br />
• Enhancing environmental consciousness through<br />
interventions and projects<br />
• Providing positive peer-pressure and role models for<br />
youth<br />
• Building self-esteem and confidence<br />
• Promoting a culture of peace<br />
SSA is a recognised National Scout Organisation, affiliated<br />
to the World Organisation of the Scout Movement and<br />
is registered as a non-profit organisation.<br />
Support your local community<br />
Does your CSI policy address<br />
supporting local communities? For<br />
R1 680 annually you can assist a<br />
group of 40 youth in developing the<br />
skills required to succeed in their<br />
professional and private lives. To<br />
help, please contact SSA CEO Ms Milly<br />
Siebrits at ceo@scouts.org.za, or find<br />
