There are only three major problems facing South Africa at this time : Unemployment , Unemployment , Unemployment !
Unemployment is not just some people ’ s problem — it really is every South African ’ s problem . One nation ... One economy .. One tomorrow for our children .
How will that future look if today 2 / 5 families do not have ANY form of income ? If 55 % of the nation does not have food security ? ( Yes , 55 % of people do not have food on their table tonight .!)
Most of us want to run away from these scary thoughts . Many want “ the government ” or “ big business ’ to sort it out . At Dream- Worker , we step right in to do our bit . We are a non profit , social development organisation dedicated to helping unemployed people in the lower end of the economic sector find work .
If you have ever struggled to find work , you will know what it feels like ….. desperation and hopelessness are daily companions . DreamWorker is all about inspiring , uplifting and giving hope to the unemployed , helping maximise their chances of securing work .
We currently operate from a central office in Observatory , with offices in Atlantis , Gugulethu and Port Shepstone , as well as fieldworkers operational in Hout Bay , Khayelitsha and Elsies River . With suitable funding , it is our dream to take this programme into all the major metropolitan areas across South Africa .
Since our 2008 launch , DreamWorker has achieved great results :
1 . We have engaged with and registered almost 14 000 unemployed people to date and continue to engage with an additional 2 000 people per year .
2 . We have recorded work placements of over 720 000 days of work , which translates into economic wages of over R93 million !
3 . Our cost to social impact ratio is over 1 200 % !

Furthermore , we have launched our Link of Love programme . Vouchers are sold for R100 . Each voucher enables an unemployed person to work for a day in their own community — caring for the sick or elderly , working in the schools etc . Thus far , we have facilitated 2 135 days of community work , which means R213 500 into the hands of the unemployed ! One less day of total despair . One more day of hope through contribution !
As fellow South Africans , passionate about a stable tomorrow for all our citizens , we invite you to support DreamWorker and in so doing make a significant contribution towards reducing unemployment in our country .
