Thank You

A big THANK YOU to our generous supporters. We were able to cover her tuition costs. Josephine has graduated from the College and returned home to Zambia. She should be starting work at the game park near her home this month. Thank you once again for helping a woman on her journey to a brighter future. We will be adding more students to Betterplace in the near future.Angela

Hello and welcome

Welcome!Thank you for visiting Josephine. Most of the students at the South African College for Tourism (SACT) come from the most beautiful wilderness areas. Unfortunately they are also isolated with very little chance for employment. SACT was started to train women to provide world class service in the hotels and guest houses developing in these areas. We believe that a guest will return if they enjoy their stay.

By helping Josephine you are also helping her family to have a better quality of life and helping her community earn a living from responsible tourism.

Angela
