Feryal Domingo sheds light on Inyathelo's mission

On today's rendition of the Morning Cruise, Jamie, Ben, and Jonah chatted to Feryal Domingo, Acting Executive Director of Inyathelo. A non-profit established in 2002, Inyathelo is an organization dedicated to establishing a true democracy and stable Civil Society in South Africa and other African countries. 

Inyathelo offers a comprehensive source of support for the South African non-profit, philanthropic, social justice and Advancement sectors. A "Civil Society Sustainability Hub" in Cape Town is the focus of their facilities and resources. They primarily focus on teaching through collaboration, publications, leadership articles, research, and capacity building training and tools that support "Inyathelo's 10 Elements of Advancement Model." Feryal emphasized that Inyathelo has been working hard to have all of these learning tools and initiatives available online for all to use.  


Past initiatives have included programs like the "Youth in Philanthropy Programme South Africa" which focused on educating high school students about the social responsibility of community service and volunteerism. Inyathelo has previously partnered with the Rhodes University Business school and hosted a six day accredited short course on Advancement and Resource Mobilization. The course was designed to give young professionals real world concepts to bring back to their everyday jobs. These are just two of the many successful project that Inyathelo has created and an example of the many beautiful projects they have coming.
