Lakeside College Hub
A R7 million vocational and tech college training 250 vulnerable youth per year — Al-Iman's most ambitious project.
About this Program
Lakeside College Hub is Al-Iman Foundation's most ambitious project to date — a R7 million investment that will reshape how vulnerable youth in South Africa enter the workforce. Located in our Lakeside branch, this state-of-the-art vocational and technology college will train 250 students per year across three streams: Digital & Tech Skills, Practical Trades, and Career Placement. By Year 1, the college will be self-sustaining — generating its own revenue through accredited courses while continuing to subsidize students from underprivileged backgrounds.
"I dropped out of school after Grade 10. Lakeside is going to give me a second chance — not just at education, but at a career that lifts my whole family."
— Sipho L., prospective student
