A very short video (15 min), depicting the work of Enlighten, was posted on youtube as part of a fundraising competition organised by the Flora Family Foundation in the US. If chosen as the winning entry, EET will raise substantial funding for some of its projects.

Lois will use the video for the presentation to be made in Kampala in June

Vanessa Alberts of overberginfo.com mentored two students, Olwethu Petros (one of our business students) and Greg Stock (student from Hermanus High) were directed by Lois. We are holding thumbs – to view it follow the link

The Enlighten Open Day, held on 25 March 2010, turned out to be a huge success. The afternoon kicked off with a very special ceremony where Henri Kuiper, the founder of EET, was honoured as the Life President of EET. Angela Heslop, Vice-Chairperson of EET, paid tribute to Henri who has, together with a committed team, established a credible and effective educational NGO in Hermanus. During the latter part of the afternoon, many visitors could enjoy what Enlighten has to offer. All venues were prepared and the EET facilitators were “on duty” to talk to the visitors. The afternoon was enjoyed and appreciated by all.

The EET Entrepreneurial Development project hosted Tom O’Toole on 15th October.  Some 120 people attended and many stayed behind afterwards to talk to Tom. On the invitation of the Stellenbosch Business School, Tom addressed the Business Breakfast Club on the Friday morning.

Christine Gittens (founder and original owner of the Dorp Street Gallery) and internationally renowned ceramist visited SA in June/July and on the 10th July presented her work as well as shared her life and work experiences on behalf of Enlighten.  This was very well attended by the community.
