IkamvaYouth is a by-youth, for-youth educational organization that enables learners in township schools to lift themselves out of poverty and into university or employment.

The film follows Akhona, a young learner working towards her final school exams and Siyabulela, a volunteer tutor, who, thanks to IkamvaYouth, is now at University. However, like many Ikamva graduates, Siyabulela still goes back to Ikamva every Saturday to tutor the next generation of learners so that they, like him, can pass their exams with Flying Colours, and access higher education.

Whilst the stories of the Ikamva learners highlight the huge challenges that face learners from disadvantaged backgrounds they also inspire future generations of township learners to follow their example by taking their future into their own hands and striving for the best education that they can get.

IkamvaYouth is in desperate need of financial support.
