Individual Organisations 5-10 min intro (slide 12 and 13) In our last lesson we looked at how you could get involved as an individual to change your community. There are also organisations that go out of their way to help others. Today we’ll be looking at several of these organizations in South Africa. But before we get started, lets have a look at some important terms we need to understand. Individual Organisations

NON- GOVERNMENT ORGANISATION (NGO) An NGO is a non-profit voluntary organisation. Not all NGOS are charities but most of them rely on donations and volunteers to get work done.

How can you help? How? Where? When? 10-15min Lets recap how you can get involved. Remember from lesson 1 you were required to answer the following questions: What I enjoy doing? What I’m good at doing? The skills I have to offer? The time I have to offer? Based on those questions you had to come up with 5 things you could do to change the lives of the peoplein your community. Now, take out those ideas you came up with last lesson and see if you can now add another 5 ideas to that list. Your poster that you are creating for the next lesson will now have 10 ideas on how you can get involved. Today I want you to not only say HOW you can get involved ? But also WHERE you can get involved and then WHEN you would do it? You have the remainder of this lesson to work on your poster. Bring your poster complete to class the next lesson. As a class we’ll choose the top 5 posters to stay up for the rest of the term.
