LIV TRAINING UPLIFTS LOCAL COMMUNITIES THROUGH SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND EMPLOYMENT.
UPLIFTING LOCAL COMMUNITIES THROUGH SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND EMPLOYMENT.
Partnering with various companies has enabled us to embark on the Training and Skills Development phase of LIV Durban – to rescue, restore, raise up and release community members who are unemployed and unskilled. This training has enabled successful graduates to be employable when they leave, providing them with a new hope and a future.
