Community Service
Those born after 1995 are called 'Generation Z' and are often accused of being self-obsessed entitled and totally wedded to their i-phones. A group of Durban high school students demonstrated how far from reality that generalisation is when they enthusiastically joined The Domino Foundation's Community Service Week during the July school holidays.
A dozen teenagers from schools around the city embraced sandwich-making for the Foundation's Feeding programme, engaged with the toddlers at the Foundation's Babies Homes and made story books for the crèches with which the Early Childhood development programme works.
They had their horizons stretched with presentations on anti-human-trafficking by the Red Light programme and on the journey of making good life decisions by a township community member. Members of the group wrote, directed, acted in and edited short video presentations of their five days of activitygreat marketing material to encourage their fellow pupils that The Domino Foundation is an excellent place to do their community service and be part of "Nation Transformation."
