Entrepreneurship promotes the country’s development, and for many South African families, it is the foundation for a better future. In line with this, Rays of Hope, with support from the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) provided 30 women from Alexandra with the skills to do professional gel nails, including manicures and nail art, and a kit

Rays of Hope has been assisting the community of Alexandra to move from vulnerability to independence for over 32 years, and it is through the valuable contributions from staff like Mahlatse Mabaso, Maite Blantina and Persley Ramogale that this is possible. Having started out as students at RoseAct Saturday School, all three have now blossomed

It is with a tremendous sense of gratitude that I write to you, friend, as the new chief “serving” officer at Rays of Hope. It’s an organisation that has made a huge impact on the Alexandra community (the very community I was raised in) over its 32 years of existence, and I take my role
