Tshepo 1Million is accessible through a data-free mobile site (tshepo.datafree.co), ensuring that a broad range of users can easily access its offerings. By leveraging technology in this way, the project can have a more significant impact on its target audience, reaching even those in remote areas. Through targeted resources, support, and opportunities, Tshepo 1Million can contribute significantly to the growth and prosperity of the entire province.

Collaboration and support for a brighter future

The Gauteng Provincial Government has taken an essential step towards empowering the young population and helping them reach their full potential by collaborating with private organizations like Harambe. With continued collaboration and support from all stakeholders, the Tshepo 1Million project can pave the way for a brighter future for Gauteng’s youth.
