Social investment
The focus of Corporate Social Investment for
Vodacom is education and the region has done
exactly that. The education portal marketed to
learners and teachers has the highest registration
of users nationally. The sign-up and use of the portal
is free.
In 2016, Vodacom launched the NXT LVL proposition
to youth under the age of 25. Limpopo province
has the highest number of youth customers using
this proposition. As part of the launch, youth
nationally were encouraged to sign up to the soccer
academy programme. Of the 24 youth chosen,
12 were from Limpopo.
In the Limpopo province continue to invest and
support eight ICT centres across the province where
the main purpose is to train teachers in mathematics
and science and this way help to integrate ICT in
the school curriculum. In the Vhembe District we
have partnered with CISCO to equip unemployed
youth with relevant ICT skills to assist with the installation
of IT equipment as well as provide instruction
in high-end computer skills.
In addition to this, the region adopted the Ntetele
day-care facility in Bloodriver by refurbishing the
centre as well as the drilling of a borehole. We
must thank our partners, Gift of the Givers and
MM Telecoms, who provided much support.
NXT LVL proposition is aimed at youth under the
age of 25.
