Legacy Projects
As part of TEACH South Africa's commitment to holistic development and sustainable change, Ambassadors implement collaborative interventions known as Legacy Projects to address socio-economic challenges.
These initiatives range from afterschool classes to sustainable green projects, sports teams, vegetable gardens, chess clubs and digital literacy programmes, leaving a lasting impact long after the Ambassador's two-year placement.
Beyond the classroom, our Ambassadors and Alumni serve as catalysts for positive change, nurturing leaders, entrepreneurs and change-makers who contribute significantly to society.
