Supporting Personal Growth

About

Motivated by our Christian faith and with a heart, for discipleship, we realised that most communities in and around Cape Town are in need of transformation, but we asked what can we do to encourage this transformation? Poverty, crime and the lack of hope for a better life are the big struggles that keep so many people in despair.

Training

In our 5-week graphic design course, you will learn the basics of digital communication, such as advertising, typography, physics of light, and image resolution. We will use the state of the art design programs to design flyers, postcards, or a book cover. Read more to find out about the details of the course and how to apply for it. 

Start-Ups

Solid Ground has started an initiative called My24 – a space that Solid Ground graduates can use to start their own business or continue to grow in their computer skills. This way we can encourage people with an entrepreneurial spirit the opportunity to become self-employed to sustain themselves and their loved ones.
