Infinite Family Information

When teens grow up in poverty, staying motivated in school can be tough. But those who stick it out and work hard have the best chance of changing their lives for the better. Infinite Family works with South African teens from badly under-resourced communities who are at real risk of being left behind. We provide them with the tech access and support they need to thrive in the 21st century. And our ground-breaking video mentorship program helps them develop the skills, resilience and motivation to make their way in the world. For most South Africans, 25 years post-apartheid, ready access to computers and internet is not their reality. Yet poverty, endemic violence and toxic stress still are. Repairing this injustice is the work of a lifetime and it starts with Education - just one of five vital impact areas in which our Infinite Family program helps teens build skills. Career Preparation, Tech Literacy, Communications and Life Skills are the others – and all require technology. Not only for access to the world of learning but also for access to the global community they are part of. 100% of 12th graders on the Infinite Family program since 2008 have: qualified for college/university and begun to build lives with stable jobs that make them role models in their communities. Your support keeps teens in school and prepares them for success in school, work and life!
