The opportunity that ATVANCE ACADEMY awarded to the youth in our community has been of a great cause, giving them an opportunity to explore different career opportunities that one never ever even thought of.  This opportunity has helped many young people to stay off the streets and refrain from substance abuse. It has opened doors to further their studies at University. Some have found employment through doing the course and they have learned a lot about the retail industry and their interest in the industry has grown. Most families who could not afford to further their children’s education have benefited and are grateful and thanked me as a facilitator for the role I played in the lives of their children. Even though they were not getting a stipend, but they are grateful for the qualification they now have. I believe this opportunity can change more lives and the company should continue with the great work it is doing.
