About Us
From our humble beginnings, Change the World Trust has experienced incredible growth. We are now running 9 successful IT Centres in communities and high schools across South Africa
The passion for ‘changing the world’ and helping youth escape the cycle of poverty is what drives the team to continue striving for more and better.
As a forward-thinking organization, innovation and ground-breaking approaches are the foundation of all our projects. In fact, the IT Centres are not only used as training facilities for unemployed youth but also as Community Learning Hubs where afternoon and weekend IT workshops are provided to students & educators, bringing schools and communities together.
