Changing lives through awareness and together as a community, we can raise responsible and accountable men!!

 

The Masakhe Indoda Club for years, has been known as a club that uplifts only men, however, that narrative has been gradually shifting to “what about the boy child”. For a society to thrive with responsible men, there needs to be an intervention at an early stage and that is where Masakhe Indoda Club has decided to be inclusive to as well. Teaching a boy child about responsibility, accountability and equip them on how to be a better man in future.

With this shift, Masakhe Indoda Club collaborated with the Department of Social Development to raise awareness of drug abuse. This insightful session was hosted at Loyiso Senior Secondary School in Gqeberha whereby learners and the school availed themselves to listen and engage in this initiative. The session aimed to educate, empower, and encourage young people to make informed, healthy life choices while building resilience against substance abuse.

With many of our communities riddled with substance abuse and the negative impact it leaves behind, Masakhe Indoda Club aims to make a positive and lasting impact by equipping young people and shaping them for their future while promoting healthier lifestyle and focusing more one their well being as men of tomorrow.

This was a successful session with learners given a platform to also pose questions they have and some were granted an opportunity to identify the causes leading to substance abuse and how it can be prevented.
