Our mission is to promote a better quality of life by offering psychosocial support to children infected and affected by HIV/AIDS, including those who are orphaned or made vulnerable by poverty, neglect, or abuse in the community of Refilwe, Tshwane.

Background & Context: The Johannesburg Children's Home (JCH), established in 1892, is Gauteng's oldest residential care facility for children. For 133 years, we have provided a safe, nurturing environment for children aged 3 to 21 who have experienced severe trauma-ranging from abuse to abandonment. Our holistic care model includes education, emotional support, and therapeutic services within a cluster-style village environment. Motivation for Innovation: Healing the emotional wounds of 64 traumatised children and preparing them for independent life is a significant and complex challenge. Many arrive at JCH with disrupted schooling, developmental delays, and deeply rooted trauma. Our goal is to ensure that when they leave our care, they do so as resilient, capable individuals with the emotional, academic, and practical skills to thrive in society. To achieve this, traditional models of care and education are no longer sufficient-we must innovate. Why This Innovation Is Needed: Youth aging out of residential care often struggle with employability, self-esteem, and independence. Many lack access to targeted psychosocial support and real-world learning pathways. The need for structured life skills, mentorship, digital readiness, and career alignment is critical to break the cycle of vulnerability. What Makes Our Approach Different: Therapeutic Life Readiness Programme: We integrate emotional healing with practical skill development through trauma-informed life skills training, digital literacy, and mentorship. Tailored Pathways for Youth (15-21): Each young person receives an individualised development plan that includes tutoring, vocational exposure, and transition support. Multi-disciplinary Model: Social workers, youth workers, educators, and therapists collaborate to offer consistent, wraparound support. Safe-to-Independent Pipeline: We are building structured pathways from residential care to semi-independent living and employment, with mentorship and aftercare. Experience in the Field: JCH brings over 133 years of experience in residential childcare and child protection. Over the past decade, we have significantly advanced our psychosocial and education support offerings. We have strong partnerships with schools, training providers, and community organisations, ensuring a well-integrated support network for our youth. Proposed Location for Implementation: The innovation will be implemented at The Johannesburg Children's Home (JCH), located in Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa. As a long-established residential facility, JCH provides a stable and secure environment for vulnerable children and youth in the heart of the city. Targeted Demographics: The programme specifically targets youth aged 15 to 21 years, currently in care at JCH or transitioning out of care. These young people have experienced severe trauma-such as abuse, neglect, and abandonment-and require structured support to develop life, educational, and employment skills. Youth Pathway: Our innovation directly engages young people through a Therapeutic Life Readiness Programme designed to support them in three core areas: 1. Emotional resilience: Trauma-informed therapy and peer support groups. 2. Educational recovery and upskilling: Individualised tutoring, digital literacy training, and vocational guidance. 3. Transition to independence: Mentorship, job shadowing, internships, and preparation for semi-independent living. Each youth follows a personalised development plan supported by our multidisciplinary team, ensuring that their voices, goals, and growth are central to the process. Relationship with the Community: JCH has deep, long-standing ties with the Johannesburg community, including schools, mental health professionals, NGOs, and local businesses. We have served hundreds of children from surrounding communities over the past 133 years and work closely with government departments, families, and community partners to ensure holistic, culturally sensitive care. Our approach is grounded in trust, transparency, and consistent engagement with stakeholders. Experience in Continuous Learning, Innovation, Sustainable Impact, and Systemic Change: Continuous Learning: Our team undergoes regular training in trauma-informed care, child development, and youth empowerment. We constantly evaluate our programmes to ensure relevance and effectiveness. Innovation: We are evolving from traditional residential care to a proactive youth development model that integrates mental health, education, and employability-tailored for post-care independence. Sustainable Impact: By equipping youth with essential life and vocational skills, we reduce their long-term reliance on social systems and increase their ability to contribute meaningfully to society. Systemic Change: Our work challenges and redefines how child and youth care is delivered in South Africa, shifting from custodial care to development-focused models that empower youth as agents of their own future.

OUR MISSION We're on a mission to drive tangible environmental restoration and inspire collective action for a thriving planet. Our work is diverse. We provide technical and financial support for reforestation and urban greening projects. We craft creative eco-education curriculums and awareness campaigns. We run engaging nature-based events and experiences. From getting our hands dirty running local projects to consulting for global organisations, we turn ideas into impact. Greenpop was founded in 2010 and has since worked across Sub-Saharan Africa and empowered thousands of people around the world to get active (not anxious) about the future of our planet. Optimistic Environmentalism - Our Guiding Philosophy: At Greenpop, we believe in tackling environmental challenges with a mindset of hope, creativity, and tangible impact. Our work is deeply rooted in the powerful theoretical framework of Optimistic Environmentalism. This philosophy isn't just an idea; it guides every project, every partnership, and every decision we make, shaping how we contribute to a thriving planet. We interpret this framework through four primary stances: Pro-Nature We champion the conservation and restoration of nature because it holds inherent value and is absolutely essential for a habitable planet. Our projects are designed to heal and enhance ecosystems, recognising nature's vital role in our collective well-being and the balance of life on Earth. Pro-People We are committed to ensuring equality of access to nature and its benefits for all people, both today and for future generations. Creating a just world means prioritising communities, empowering diverse voices, and ensuring environmental solutions genuinely uplift and benefit everyone, especially marginalised groups. Pro-Innovation We embrace creativity, new technology, and innovative design as crucial tools for solving complex environmental challenges. We constantly seek smarter, more effective ways to make a lasting positive impact, fostering a culture of continuous learning, adaptation, and bold thinking. Pro-Action We believe that swift, meaningful environmental action is essential, not just in policy or grand initiatives, but in every sphere - personal, economic, and legislative. We activate individuals and communities to become active participants, turning concern into tangible positive change and inspiring widespread joyful engagement. These four stances form the bedrock of Greenpop's approach, demonstrating our belief that a sustainable future is not only possible but achievable through an empowered, connected, and proactive humanity. It's the philosophy that fuels our mission to drive tangible environmental restoration and inspire collective action for a thriving planet.
