"AspireYouth has impacted my life a lot, I don't know how to explain, I have changed a lot from the Likho I was to the one I am now. I am more clear and vocal. Through AspireYouth I learnt to stand up for myself and stand for my dreams. My favourite part of the program was being given the chance to work more often in AspireTrade, I got to be independent and earn money. I accomplished stability, and got to start on my Beauty business." - Likhona Majodina, 23, Khayelitsha.

“I have gained a lot of life skills. AspireYouth has helped me improve my confidence. I am now more open minded because of the opportunities that AspireYouth comes with. As a result of the program, I got my first client in my business which is a Social Media, Web Design and Brand Design business. Going forward, my goal is to get ten clients for my business, get my business registered, and get a driving license. Through AspireYouth I aim to get a lot of networking opportunities, get business support, and also personal support." - Zharné December, 27, Hanover Park.
