R50 BUSINESS CHALLENGE
Need
In a tough economic environment, formal employment is harder to find – South African
youth need skills to employ themselves and create economic value that matches their
self-worth. Basic business skills are life skills.

and Responsibility.

4 week micro-business run in groups of 4.
Success
We ran the challenge as part of NALEDI CORE for 4 years from 2015. The best result
was a team of 4 girls that generated R1550.
Process
• School learners that have shown dedication and potential in the NALEDI CORE
program are selected for this 4 week programme.
• Learners are put into groups of 4 to run a micro business – they receive R50 startup
capital. Before they start, everyone involved receives a workshop about managing
and making Money, and each team has to design and present their business plan to
the other teams.
• Each group receives coaching each week to help it think through its challenges and
opportunities and account for its weekly costs and income.
