Develop SA

Develop South Africa (Develop SA) is a multifaceted non-profit organization addressing issues around youth unemployment, a developmental challenge that exists in Rosebank and other parts of the northern suburbs of Johannesburg. Through local partnerships and participation, Develop SA designs, implements and maintains developmental programs in the form of workshops, projects and networks to strategically promote skills transfer and career guidance.

Founded and run by Admire Kamutimbe, Develop SA's aim is to relentlessly nurture, uplift and showcase young talent. Their focus is on Community Engagement and Development (CED), entrepreneurship and business skills, as well as supporting skills development in Science, Engineering and Technology (SET). Music is central to Develop SA's work. The organisation currently hosts a weekly jam session at the Parktown North Methodist Church for homeless artists to express themselves and collaborate.
