For years, she relied solely on the child grant to provide for her family. Despite the constant struggle to make ends meet, Nokubonga\u2019s determination to create a better life for her children never wavered. She knew that to break free from the cycle of poverty, she needed to find a way to improve her circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nokubonga learned about a beauty skills course offered by the Outreach Foundation. Seeing this as a potential lifeline, she eagerly enrolled in the program. The course covered various aspects of beauty, including hairstyling, makeup, and nail care. Nokubonga immersed herself in the training, eager to learn and develop new skills that could help her build a better future for her family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Upon completing the course, she received a starter kit that included essential tools and products to help her start her own beauty business, GlamDiva. With her skills and the starter kit in hand, she began offering beauty services from her home. Word of her talent spread quickly, and she soon built a loyal client base. Her business started to grow, providing her with a steady income that far exceeded the child grant she once relied on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having been in the beauty industry for some time now, Nokubonga has continued to push herself and her business to new heights. Recognising her incredible progress and dedication, the Outreach Foundation decided to reissue the starter kit to her. This gesture was more than just providing additional resources; it was an acknowledgement of her hard work and a reward for her perseverance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nokubonga expressed immense gratitude for the reissued starter kit, believing it would significantly aid in her business growth. The additional resources would enable her to enhance her services and attract more clients. Importantly, the income generated from her business helps her pay for her children\u2019s school fees, allowing her to provide them with a better future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-base-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/www.outreachfoundation.co.za\" style=\"background-color:#2e3192\"><strong>Go to HOME page<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nokubonga, a single mother of two, faced the daunting challenge of raising her children with limited financial resources.
