FOREWORD
We feel deeply fortunate to have developed a unique approach, which is creating the most incredible ripple effects in our SA communities and families . . . Every single day I experience its unfolding. It makes my heart sing!
Such an approach continuously calls upon us to dive deeper in understanding its many facets and to be mentored by every encounter in each of our projects and in daily engagements with others. It requires of us to take o w n e r s h i p, recognising where we limit ourselves and therefore each other - where we can still e x p a n d. . . It is an i n v i t a t i o n to move on multiple lanes on ‘our highway’ as we empower and educate individuals and their communities.
Quality remains one of our most important values as a Catalyst where we inspire each of our students to define Quality in who he/she is, creating a unique blend from which to live as a Change Agent. The caliber developed through extensive COC work is groundbreaking…
I will let the words and pictures in our Annual Report take you on a special journey rather than trying to paint the picture here. May each page be another stroke on the canvas. May it touch you as it daily touches me and leave you with a sense of knowing what possibly can take us ‘there’. It is really not rocket science. It is very simple concepts applied consistently. They are by each Student driven passionately, with great commitment and a deep-felt sense of purpose…. a connection to what moves us all… simply living peacefully in our shared humanity!

A
CHANGE AGENT
A very effective way to prevent and divert our youth and youngsters from pursuing the path of
crime is to shape positive Role Models who meet the youth at risk where they are at and inspire/
guide them towards a different path. We find these potential change agents in some of the most
challenged SA environments...
Imagine your heart opening and a sudden bending of all the rules you used to live by, rules that kept
you locked in a narrow lane on your highway of life; a lane where you gave up on your true self and
where crime became an option. Nothing is what it seems… You are waking up!
!
A Change Agent challenges old and limiting beliefs and moves consciously towards a full spectrum
of Awareness; healing and actively developing; well aware that there is always more to be
explored and to be learned. Values are deepened in daily conscious practice. A Change Agent
serves wholeheartedly by inspiring change through his/her own living example.

OUTPUT/OUTCOME:
We have serviced three Western Cape prisons. We
have valued and nurtured the relationship with each of
these prisons and ensured high quality service delivery.
!
WORCESTER PRISON PROCESS

Luyanda Mboniswa & Collin Duda
!
HELDERSTROOM PRISON PROCESS
Assisted by two Change Agents in the making
Theo Mtsutwana& Igshaan Davids
!
MALMESBURY PRISON PROCESS
Assisted by four Change Agents Bradley Hess, Malcolm
Booysen, Andrew Aloni & Alfred Middleway
!
1. 8 Change Agents (+3) have attended full COC
activation this year and in weekly sessions guided
60+ fellow inmates through the TRI journey in
COC1 of which now four have qualified COC1 and
joined the TRI Facilitator training in COC3 - going
into full COC activation. The process has been
monthly supervised by our quality assurance.
!
2. We have given green light to and welcomed Marco
Simons, Pumzile Salela, Jabu Masilela and Jimmy
Majola to the next step on their COC journey. This
has brought us to 14 (+1) Change Agents in the
making inside SA prisons in 2013/14.
!
3. 4 (of the 14) Change Agents with strong TRI
toolboxes have re-integrated: Andrew, Collin,
Alfred and Malcolm as well as three TRI Students

Welcome home Collin!
!
Both Collin Duda and Sihle Tshabalala have been
committed TRI Students inside Brandvlei and
Worcester Prisons. Collin facilitated TRI as part of his
COC education over a couple of years.
!
They were and still are strong resources within Group
of Hope in Worcester prison and are now active with
their amazing work as ‘Brothers for All’ - touching
lives wherever they go.
!
It is wonderful to experience the Ripple Effect of
individuals who begin deep within themselves,
knowing that ‘the ripple’ starts with ME!
!
We are very proud of both of you!
!
!
!
!
OUR OBJECTIVE 2014-15

SmilingOne proudly supports Sihle & Collin in their
COC Development - we walk heart by heart in

community in Valhalla Park in 2012 and has since
shown tremendous growth and entrepreneurial skill.
!
Throughout the past year Welcome has managed to
kick-start his Heart & Soul Foundation - his own COC2
Caring Project - and touches thousands of lives in
challenged SA communities! He is an amazing
resource, whom we support with all our heart.

The work with incredibly special Men the past seven years in
South African Prisons has allowed us to understand so much more
of what it means to transform into a ‘Gentle Giant’ - one who
serves wholeheartedly. Strength is found in being deeply
in touch with your own inner story and vulnerability;
and the ability to meet me in mine. There
is kindness that flows like a river from
a consciousness that unites us all!

OUTPUT / OUTCOME
!
During November and December 2013: Malcolm facilitated weekly TRI sharing sessions
with a group of 15 youth in his local community - availing a sharing platform, allowing the
youth to open up, share their feelings and challenges. Together they did an outreach in the
community as well as a workshop on appreciation of parents.
!
Sessions offered the youth:
- support during a stressful time of study and exams
- more angles on why they experienced challenge and how to resolve them
- a platform to express themselves without feeling guilty
- the opportunity to speak their hearts
- an experience of deep appreciation for what you have

OUTPUT / OUTCOME
Franklin facilitated TRI weekly in Grade 6 with 35 learners
!- I have a deeper understanding of youth and their challenges, this is key in my role as a
Change Agent.
- The project has been important preparation for our Youth at Risk portfolio. Crime and
its affect on youth is much clearer now.
- The support system of the youth is important! To have a platform of sharing -
especially around their daily challenges.
- Being honest is key with the youth.
- The sharing platform helps teach the youth how to express themselves openly
!
OBJECTIVE 2014-15
I use my learning from the one year school pilot in my Change Agent Activities and meet
the Youth at Risk where they are at. I help them build a bridge to a broader understanding
in life - a life where crime is not an option anymore.

Circle Of Change
We have through the past six years in our Community Development Initiative developed
an approach that we call Circles of Change (C.O.C.). It is an approach that we have
learned by working intensively in change processes – with individuals and their
communities.
Each Circle of Change consists of three pillars (key change elements) where The
Responsible Individual is an essential puzzle piece – as a personal values-based
leadership development programme, entrepreneurial skills development programme and
as a way of leading a life in gratitude and service.
SKY GALLERY allows full C.O.C Activation.

THE EDUCARE STAFF HAS SHOWN INCREDIBLE
COMMITMENT IN EQUIPPING THEIR TOOLBOXES
(THE INNER/OUTER RENOVATION) AND HAVE
TURNED THEIR CLASSROOMS INTO A PLACE OF
LOVE AND LEARNING. THERE IS LESS DAILY
PERSONAL STRUGGLE AND THE ABILITY TO TAKE
OWNERSHIP - NOT LETTING ‘MY STUFF’ IMPACT
ON THE CHILD THAT IS LEARNING. THIS HAS
OPENED A SPACE FOR MINDFUL EDUCATION OF
THE YOUNGSTERS IN THE NYANGA COMMUNITY.

PAUSING & REFLECTING
INNER/OUTER RENOVATION
!
IT HAS BEEN INCREDIBLE TO BE PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF A VERY SPECIAL EDUCARE
CENTRE IN ONE OF THE HIGHEST RISK COMMUNITIES IN THE WESTERN CAPE. THE PROCESS
THE PAST YEAR HAS ALSO BEEN TESTED TO THE BONE AS WE EMBARKED ON THE
RENOVATIONS. IT WAS AN INVITATION TO TRULY UNDERSTAND THAT IT MAKES ABSOLUTELY
NO DIFFERENCE IN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT TO ONLY ATTEND TO ‘THE OUTER’ - IN THIS
CASE ATTENDING TO THE POOR CONDITION OF THE BUILDINGS!
!
WHAT TRULY MATTERS IS THAT THE FOUNDATION WE BUILD ON IS SOLID AND LASTING. ONE
OF PERSONAL VALUES-BASED LEADERSHIP - A CONSCIOUSNESS AWOKEN DURING THE INNER
RENOVATION. ITS CONTINUOUS ATTENDANCE AND DEVELOPMENT WILL GENTLY CARE FOR
‘THE OUTER’. THAT IS WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS - JUST LIKE IT DID FOR IVY NYOVANE!
!
THIS CONTINUES TO BE OUR OBJECTIVE IN UPLIFTING HIGH RISK COMMUNITIES
HAND IN HAND WITH OUR SPONSORS & PARTNERS - COC EDUCATION TAKES
CARE OF THE REST!

OUR DEEP-FELT GRATITUDE TO CHEVROLET UTE FORCE
FOR YOUR CONFIDENCE IN OUR PROJECT AND OUR
APPROACH TO COMMUNITY BUILDING. HAND IN HAND
WITH THORP MOTOR GROUP WE WON R200,000 PLUS
THREE MONTHS USAGE OF A CHEVROLET UTE TOWARDS
THE NYANGA LEARNING VILLAGE, STARTING WITH THE
RENOVATION OF IVY NYOVANE EDUCARE CENTRE - AN URGENT NEED! ONE OF THE
BUILDINGS WAS FALLING A PART AND ITS ROOF SEVERELY DAMAGED, WHICH RESULTED IN
WATER ENTERING THE CLASS ROOMS ON RAINY DAYS, THERE WAS CONSTANT LEAKAGE IN
THE BATHROOM, NO PROPER KITCHEN AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON. IT WAS
IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE EDUCARE CENTRE HOSTING 80 KIDS (2-6 YRS OLD) AT THAT
TIME TO
RECEIVE A GRANT DUE TO LACK OF THE
REQUIRED HEALTH CERTIFICATE.
CRECHE SAFE.

INSULATED WALLS, DOUBLE SIZED
BATHROOM & TOILET FACILITIES,

Our growth this year is a testimony of our
focused approach ensuring high quality service
delivery in all we do. We have been very clear
on where to invest our efforts and have not
compromised. We have been curious about
exploring ideas and concepts as they contribute
to growth - therein lies our ability to also say no
when an idea does not align fully to our core
objective. This year has been all about listening
to and being true to our core.
!
Clarity in our approach gives our beneficiaries a
solid platform to develop on, which adds
another very important ingredient in our
growth mix.
!
Our continued investment in the Change Agent
has taken our approach to a whole new level.
The development that has followed is what
adds value not only to youth at risk and their
communities touched by the Ripple Effect of a
Change Agent; it is also what sustains our
partnerships with truly special people and
companies who trust in our approach. We care
deeply about these partnerships that has fuelled
our development engine - simply because they
care and as we do believe in that we all own a
share in the wellbeing of our society.
!
What has furthermore contributed to fuel our
development engine this year has been the very
special partnership with LRMG Performance
Agency. The contribution has grown with 83%
and allowed us to invest more intensively into
the COC development of a Change Agent -
towards sustainable livelihoods.
!
GM Childlife & Ute Force - partnerships shaped
via our longterm sponsor Thorp Motorgroup -
enabled us to bring the Nyanga Project into full
blossoming - gently guided by Change Agents.
!
We are geared for another special year!
