South Africa has shown that without education no child will have the tools or skill to create a life that is released

from poverty.

23 years have passed since we first had democratic elections and still we face a systemic breakdown of our

education system.

The majority of our children attend school daily and yet are neither literate nor numerate.

The stats are shocking and so upsetting as we have proven, at Tomorrow Trust, that our children are committed to

their education unlike the schools that they attend daily.

They still face situations where their teachers are not committed nor trained to actually facilitate and teach the

curriculum.

Added to this they are not encouraged or inspired to do better academically or emotionally.

Government has made a pass mark of 30% to prove they have students passing from grade to grade. By doing so

they have set up all students for failure and added to this they show our youth that they are only worth the 30%.

With a pass mark of 30% options for post school careers are extremely limited forcing another generation into a

cycle of poverty and struggle.

Executive Director and Founder’s message

Kim Normand Dobrin

For children to do better they need to know that someone believes in them and will stand next to them as they reach

higher to achieve even more than they themselves had dreamt of.

At Tomorrow Trust we believe and know that our students have the natural ability and hunger to reach high and dig

deep to achieve greatness.

We have proven over the past 11 years that each individual who is given the opportunity to quality education with

psycho social support will fly to levels that the average system does not achieve.

We would like to thank all those who have been part of our journey and encourage many more to join us in breaking

the cycle of poverty through holistic education.

By doing so we change one life with far reaching ripple effects that uplift families and communities and in turn our

country – South Africa!

Together we can do this ! Working together we can do this!

Join us now – come join the family at Tomorrow Trust.

Non-profit organisations are always concerned about the ability to finance their operations The Tomorrow Trust is

no exception. The economic challenges that faced South Africa in 2016 resulted in various donors reducing and/

or withdrawing their funding for the Tomorrow Trust. Any such withdrawal and funding has a direct impact on the

Tomorrow Trust’s ability to assist its intended beneficiaries. Despite this, the Tomorrow Trust’s CEO (Kim Normand

Dobrin), the Tomorrow Trust Team and the Board managed to ensure that the Tomorrow Trust continues to do what

it was set out to do i.e. to support orphaned and vulnerable children with holistic education.

The need to educationally support the children of South Africa has become more pressing. It is through education

that the political, social and economic challenges and ills that South Africa and the world are facing can be resolved.

As it has been experienced through the fees must fall demonstrations, there is a pressing need to find solutions that

can assist in funding education in South Africa. At the heart of the “fees must fall movement” is the demand for free

tertiary education. This demand has, sadly, led to various institutions of learning experiencing, inter alia, the burning

of buildings and combats between police and students. To date, no acceptable solution has been reached as to how

tertiary education can become free. The Government of South Africa has appointed a commission of enquiry to

Message from our Chairman

Jack Phalane

enquire and report on the feasibility of making tertiary education “fee free”. The work of the commission of enquiry

has not been easy and whilst the commission continues to do its work, students still need to be funded so that they

can continue with their studies. For so long as education in South Africa is not “fee free”, vulnerable children will

continue to require holistic educational support. Thus, the work of the Tomorrow Trust has become more and more

critical. The Tomorrow Trust can only succeed in its mission to educate the children of South Africa if it continues to

receive the support from its donors. We are grateful to the Tomorrow Trust’s donors, be it past, present and future, for

their support - South Africa needs your continued support.

The support given by everyone to the Tomorrow Trust constitutes an investment to South Africa. It is encouraging to

see that the children who were being supported by the Tomorrow Trust in 2016 have had remarkable achievements

and the list of matriculants and tertiary graduates continues to grow. This can only bode well for South Africa and the

world.

To all the Tomorrow Trust’s donors, stakeholders, partners and staff, let us not tire in educating the children who so

desperately need us.

Adding it up

Vision, Mission and Values

Poor education is the root of many societal issues

throughout the world. By supporting the Tomorrow

Trust, you put faith in South African youth and create

the opportunity for students, their families, and their

communities to build fulfilling futures.

Funding a South African youth promises them

individualized schooling throughout their educational

journey, which can bring them and their entire family

out of poverty. Helping one student can truly help an

entire community.

Our mission is to provide holistic support to Orphaned

and Vulnerable children/Youth through their

educational journey, enabling them to make choices,

and empowering them to reach their full potential

as self-sustaining and proactive members of society.

We value respect and tolerance, family values, and

teamwork. We teach these principles to our students

at the same time as we practice them in our every day

work.

Our vision is to be the leading NGO making a

meaningful and sustainable impact on the lives of

orphaned and vulnerable children/youth throughout

their educational journey. In advancing this vision,

we empower them to reach their full potential while

creating strong, thriving communities.

Overview

IntroductionThe Tomorrow Trust is a non – profit organisation founded in 2005, that supports orphaned and vulnerable children

throughout their educational journey. We provide Integrated education and holistic support. Our focus is on

academics and life skills, thereby empowering each individual to reach their full potential as self-sustaining and

proactive members of society.

We are dedicated to finding the students who are the most vulnerable and marginalsed, and who therefore have the

greatest potential to reverse the course of their futures. We evaluate them as whole individuals—with intricate and

specialised needs that cannot be met by a “one size fits all” mentality towards education. In this way, from the very

beginning, we build a tailored programme to help each student where he or she needs it most. This is our holistic

support method, which runs throughout all stages of learning, to provide students with academic and psychosocial

support.

Why Tomorrow TrustResearch found that of 100 students who start school in South Africa:

12 access university

6 get some kind of qualification within 6 years

4 get a degree within 6 years

The Tomorrow Trust is changing these statistics. Learn how.

Tomorrow Trust studentsTomorrow Trust students are influenced by their education from day one.

The Tomorrow Trust supports orphaned and vulnerable children to achieve

their educational goals, from their earliest years until they are programme

alumni. Providing holistic support – psycho social and academic – to each

student ensures South African youth receive the education they deserve.

We believe in a HAND UP that empowers and emancipates South African

youths from poverty, rather than a HAND OUT that keeps them entrenched

in charity. Giving them the tools and skills they need to survive and thrive in

the 21st century, our graduates are empowered to reach their full potential

as self-sustaining and proactive members of society.

Economies & FamiliesEducation is the most sustainable option to provide

professional opportunities, and to improve socio-economic

conditions. Once a Tomorrow Trust student graduates from

college, they are fully prepared for a career in their field of

study. Providing students with a fulfilling career strengthens

their communities and their economy. Graduates go on to

support their entire family, bringing parents, siblings, aunts,

and uncles out of poverty.

All Tomorrow Trust students are required to give back to

younger students and to their community. They learn how

their actions can improve their community and bring about

a stronger South Africa. As communities become more

educated, economies thrive, jobs increase, and poverty rates

decline.

EducationIn South Africa, a student’s education spans over

13 years, beginning at Grade R (kindergarten) and ending

at Grade 12. For 40 years, schools suffered from a poorly

managed education structure, reinforced by an unequal

apartheid education that segregated races—and robbed

many students of opportunities. In 1994, this segregation

law was overturned—but, South Africa still struggles to

produce high performing schools. The South African

education system is in crisis with the stats being the worst

that we have experienced in previous years. The new pass

rate is 33.3% and no student is allowed to fail twice so they

are then pushed up to the next grade with no knowledge of

the work needed.

The persistence of an inadequate education has long

lasting effects on South Africans and their communities.

According to Brand South Africa, illiteracy rates currently

stand at 18% for adults over the age of 15, leading to a high rate of unemployment among South Africans. This

dilemma is compounded by low participation in higher education, with only 16% of 18-24-year olds being accepted

to universities.

“61% of South African pupils lack the minimum competency in basic mathematics knowledge”.

– Jonathan Jansen: Maths and Science-preparing our children for failure. (Dec 2016)

“Of the fulltime 610,178 learners who sat to write their final Grade 12 National Senior Certificate. Only 151,830

achieved a bachelor pass which is 24%-Matric results 2016: Bachelor’s passes for more than 150 000 pupils” –

Prega Govender – (January 2017)

According to the department’s figures, 1 100 877 pupils enrolled for Grade 10 in 2014, but only 610 178 wrote

Grade 12 in 2016. 490,699 had dropped out of school.

Knowing that education and life skill development are the essential ingredient to sustainable developed and poverty

reduction, Tomorrow Trust is committed to altering the course of education in our country.

Junior Holiday School Programme: Grade R (kindergarten) – Grade 7Tomorrow Trust offers supplementary support during the holiday period as well on Saturdays

to orphaned and vulnerable children in order to supplement, build, support and correct the

learning’s they receive at their home school.

Future success in education- and life- depends on a strong academic foundation within the

junior phase. The focus of the junior programme is ensuring that learners are prepared for the

transition into senior phase/ high school. We do this by developing the fundamental building

blocks in English language, Literacy and Numeracy. This is simply not only about providing the

academic support but providing them with holistic experiential workshops that plant the seed

for self-growth and understanding. Another key component of the programme is that we

provide nutritious meals, transport to and from the hosting venues as well as stationery and

course materials. In this way, each learner is in the best possible position to take advantage of

the learning opportunity provided by the Junior Holiday School Programme.

Saturday and Holiday School: Grade 8 – Grade 12Continuing the learner’s academic journey with Tomorrow Trust, the Grade 7 learner graduate

to the Senior Saturday and Holiday School Programme. This programme is a comprehensive

academic and psycho social support programme focusing on building and strengthening

English, Mathematics, Life Sciences and Physical Sciences. The goal is to enable these

learners to pass their National Senior Certificate with improved results allowing them to

access tertiary opportunities.

Again, this is a supplementary programme that is done on a Saturday and during the school

holidays. We transport these learners to hosting schools and their academic endeavours

are supported with nutritious meals, stationery and psycho social holistic support. A large

component of this programme is the holistic workshops that we offer in order to develop the

learners self. We do this, by providing various workshops on self-mastery, career guidance,

motivational talks and leadership development.

Tomorrow Trust Programmes

14

Each year the Tomorrow Trust team assesses the

success of the programmes and support. This is done

with a critical eye to see exactly what is working, how it

is working and what is needed to make changes to for

better success.

In the Holiday and Saturday School Programmes,

Tomorrow Trust strictly monitors all the programmes

to ensure that beneficiaries achieve the support they

need in order to pass well at school and to understand

the curriculum. Our programmes are fully aligned

and compliant with the school curriculum better.

The Gauteng Department of Education recognises

Tomorrow Trust programmes.

Tomorrow Trust is now in its 12th year. We are strong

in our monitoring and evaluation practises. We are

committed to seeing what progress and impact is

being made from year to year.

Holiday and Saturday School Programme

What makes our Holiday and Saturday School Programme unique:

Integrated approach that includes both academic

and psycho social holistic support that builds the

individual child.

Tomorrow Trust does not simply take the top

students, as many other organisations do. We

place a great deal of emphasis on the learner’s

potential and attitude. The learners and students

we work with generally start the programme with

results in the 30% - 40% range, and we work with

the beneficiaries to improve their results.

Model of sustainability: The Grade 8-12 classes of

2017 have been with the Tomorrow Trust Holiday

and Saturday School Programme since Grade R

(K1)/1.

15

The focus in the foundation Phase (Grade R (K1)-7) is learning to read and then from Intermediate Phase (Grade 4-

7) the focus is on read to learn. According to the National Curriculum Policy, schools currently focus on teaching

Numeracy, Home language and First Additional Language (English) as well as Life Skills in the Foundation Phase. The

breakdown below indicates the time spent in teaching the learners the languages within their own schools:

The Tomorrow Trust focuses on the transition from Foundation Phase to Intermediate Phase and understands that

children need a solid foundation in English language and Numeracy in order to progress well. This is why the Junior

School programme places great emphasis on the development of the English language. We have seen that this will

be the fundamental basis for learning in other subjects as well and will result in higher marks in Grade 9 across the

board.

performing at. Below we have shown the comparison

of the percentage of learners who achieve 50% and

more in Mathematics and English in the National ANA

compared to those learners within the Tomorrow Trust.

If a learner is not able to achieve more than 50% in

mathematics and English, their foundation for Grade

10, 11 and 12 will not be adequate resulting in them

failing in Grade 12 or dropping out.

PLEASE NOTE - ONLY THE 2014 National results

have been released – Although our stats have always

exceeded those of National by 2016 Tomorrow Trust

students were excelling compared to National stats.

Grade 9 AnalysisAccording to the Global Competitiveness report,

South Africa was ranked 133rd out of 142 countries

for the quality of its primary education. It is evident

that in Grade 9, the learners are not equipped with

the foundations of Mathematics and English to enable

them to pass with a good mark.

Furthermore, 47% of the learners drop out of school at

the end of Grade 9 in South Africa.

Annual National Assessments (ANA) are implemented

by the National Department of Education to measure

learner’s progress and to establish the level they are

The Tomorrow Trust Saturday and Holiday School

Programmes have shown the quality and commitment

to the academic outcome of learner’s results.

Tomorrow Trust believes in accessing the potential

in every child and ensuring they pass Grade 12 with

improved marks despite the various challenges they

face. This in turn develops a well-rounded competent

individual who can positively contribute to the South

African economy. Academics are one aspect of the

As indicated in the above graph, only 21% of South

African learners achieved a bachelor university pass,

whilst 78.4% of Tomorrow Trust Grade 12 learners

achieved a bachelor university pass. The Tomorrow

Trust Grade 12 learners collectively achieved 106

distinctions (80% and above). Our collective group

average went from an average 40% to 63%.

The dropout rate of South African learners is alarming

– with both encouragement and meaning we find that

our learners are committed to staying in school and

creating a pathway to making positive change in their

lives to become self-reliant and proactive members of

society.

Trust works with Grade R (kindergarten) educators

from township schools, uplifting them in classroom

skills that mean the impact of Tomorrow Trust

initiatives extend beyond the supplemental education

programme we run—expanding the number of

children who will be impacted by improved learning

environments.

Computer Literacy ProgrammeIn addition to holistic and basic academic support,

the Tomorrow Trust believes in advancing computer

literacy among South African youth. Becoming

comfortable with technology is necessary for students

to succeed in higher education and find promising

careers. The programme also offers educational games

that focus on Reading, Spelling, and Mathematics,

which allows the Tomorrow Trust to monitor the

progress of each individual learner and identify focus

areas for each group.

Independent External Research done on the impact of Tomorrow Trust on Orphans and vulnerable youth

participating in Tomorrow Trust programmes

Warrick John Dodge conducted a study in partial fulfilment of his Masters in Educational Psychology at the University

of Johannesburg. This study focused on the psychosocial experiences of the emotional well-being of orphaned and

vulnerable (OVC) Grade 9 learners who participated in the Tomorrow Trust Holiday/Saturday school programmes.

While there are a number of organisations who focus on the care and protection of OVC’s, many programmes tend

to neglect the special emphasis and tailored programmes needed by the adolescent population. As the Tomorrow

Trust fulfils this need, this research was conducted to investigate the success of the Tomorrow Trust programme and

the impact made on its Grade 9 learners.

As part of the study, each participant/beneficiary was asked to rank the themes in order of the importance to them

and their own particular experiences at Tomorrow Trust.

The results from the study showed that the ranking of the identified themes with the most valued first for the Grade 9

learners was as follows:

1) Motivation – I feel that the Tomorrow Trust encourages me to achieve my goals. The results showed

that from the motivational speakers, role-models and general encouragement to work hard to achieve goals and

persevere when the going gets tough from Tomorrow Trust, the students continuously felt motivated

2) Positive Future – I feel positive about my future because of my experiences at the Tomorrow Trust. The

results showed that the students felt that their situation could be changed and things would be better in the future.

They were also confident that they were on the road to being successful.

3) Life Skills – I feel that I have learned valuable life lessons at the Tomorrow Trust. The results showed that the

Tomorrow Trust imparts a set of life skills on the participants. They are aware of different cultures and the need to

respect different cultural norms and values, to have a heightened awareness of people with different abilities and the

importance of friendships.

4) Self-worth – I feel valued and respected for who I am at the Tomorrow Trust.

5) Safety – I feel physically and emotionally safe. All the students indicated that they felt safe at the Tomorrow

Trust when part of the programme.

Quote from a Tomorrow Trust student: “Education is the success of tomorrow”

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Warrick John Dodge and the University of Johannesburg for the

outcomes of this study and the confirmation that the work Tomorrow Trust does is meaningful and impactful on our

beneficiaries.

Post Secondary Programme

Considering the poorly functioning state of education in South Africa, it is truly an incredible

moment to see our students graduate from Grade 12—and the pride that they rightfully

feel is overwhelming. At this stage, they are prepared to be part of our Post-Secondary

programme, which is geared towards assisting students through College and University. We

are committed to providing support for these young adults throughout the year.

Our students are offered full bursaries to attend University or College; we cover costs for

tuition, textbooks, accommodation, food and transport. Psycho- social and academic

support is provided to all students to ensure they complete their qualifications and are ready

for the working environment when they graduate. Monthly workshops are also arranged

where life skills, study skills, self-awareness and self-mastery issues are developed and taught.

This furthers their growth as they develop in to competent, proactive individuals. Upon

graduation, students enter the South African job market as skilled and reliable individuals,

ready to further and sustain the growth of our country.

Post-secondary students are required to give back at least 10 hours a year to the younger

groups within the Grade R – Grade 12 programme at Tomorrow Trust. They then become

motivators and role models to the younger students and at the same time learn the wonder

of being able to make a positive impact on another’s life.

When the Tomorrow Trust Post-Secondary department was founded in 2005, 12 students

were supported to obtain their tertiary qualifications. From then, the number of Post-

Secondary students supported has anually increased. In 2016, 140 students were supported

by the Tomorrow Trust studying at various institutions and in various career fields.

At the Tomorrow Trust, we support students in various fields of study and, as can be

seen from the following graph, our students are enrolled for qualifications in the fields of

Commerce, Engineering, Law, Health Sciences and Computer Science to name but a few.

A few Post Secondary Success Stories

GODFREY TSHEHLA

Godfrey joined the Tomorrow Trust Holiday and Saturday School Programme in 2011 when

he was in Grade 10 with marks of less than 30%. He worked hard for the remaining 3 years

of his high school and with the Tomorrow Trust’s support, matriculated in 2013 with 100%

in Mathematics. He was then awarded a bursary from the Post-Secondary Programme to

study a BSc Computing & Mathematics at Wits. At the end of 2016 Godfrey completed his

undergraduate degree in record time as one of the top students in his class, a Golden Key

member and with an average of 77% for his modules. Godfrey has now enrolled for Honours

in Advanced Mathematical Sciences at Wits for 2017.

IMMACULATE LEFIFI

Immaculate joined the Tomorrow Trust Holiday and Saturday School Programme in 2009

when she was in Grade 10 with poor marks. Her dream was to become a lawyer and with

the help of the Tomorrow Trust, she matriculated in 2011 with excellent results and enrolled

at Wits for a BA (Law). She was awarded a Tomorrow Trust bursary and this year, she will be

completing her final year of her Post-Graduate Law degree (L.L.B) before embarking on her

Law articles at a reputable firm.

POSHY MPAI

Poshy joined the Tomorrow Trust in 2014 as a second year Medicine student, studying

at Wits University. Originally from Pretoria and the first in his family to attend university,

Poshy has always been determined to never allow his background to stand in the way

of his education. Through hard work and determination, Poshy has continued to excel

academically as one of the top students in his year, a Golden Key member and hold a

consistent average of 83% for his modules. Poshy enters 2017 in his 5th year of Medicine and

hopes to one day make a difference in his community.

VINCENT SIMELANE

Vincent joined the Tomorrow Trust in 2014 as a second year Law student, studying at the

University of Johannesburg. As a hard working student, he graduated with his BA Law degree

in 2015 and then entered his Postgraduate studies in Law, with the aim of completing his

articles and becoming an attorney. Outside of his academics, Vincent has served as both

the Treasurer and Chairman of the Golden Key society, attending Golden Key summits in

both Australia and the USA. Vincent enters 2017 in his final year of his Law degree and looks

forward to joining a prestigious law firm in 2018.

27

Tomorrow Trust Gives Back

In the effort to develop self-sufficient and well-rounded individuals who will not only excel in their careers but form

part of a caring society, all Post-Secondary students are required to give back 10 hours towards Tomorrow Trust

activities. These activities are mainly focused on assisting at the Holiday and Saturday School Programme through

tutoring, coordinating and mentoring our young students. While we do not make this a compulsory exercise, we

encourage our students to take the time to give back as much as they can. By doing this we often find that most

students give back more and this year was no exception.

In 2016, our students gave back 1892 hours. 64% of our students gave back more than the recommended 10 hours

with one student giving back a total of 86 hours throughout 2016; the highest number of hours given back by any

student at Tomorrow Trust in its history.

HOLISTIC SUPPORT AND SELF DEVELOPMENT

During the course of their studies our students will attend approx. 30 holistic workshops, totalling 99 hours of self-

mastery, motivational, academic and workplace skill development

The students go through a holistic curriculum during the course of their studies focusing on the themes of

“Gratitude”, “My Journey”, and “Free to be Me”

Each year 20 Tomorrow Trust students are awarded based on their academic performance, attitude, resilience,

giving back, and character

Tomorrow Trust requires each of their Post-Secondary students to give back 10 hours of their time yearly to the Holiday and Saturday School Programmes

In 2016, our students attended 10 theatre productions, including Shrek: The Musical; Robin Hood; Forever Jackson and Classics in the Garden

20 fortunate and deserving Tomorrow Trust students have attended LEAP, a leadership programme at UCLA in Los Angeles. This programme gives a 7 year Leap in life.

Alumni Programme

Tomorrow Trust students never truly leave the Tomorrow Trust programme,

because we become family through the close bonds developed in our

learning environments. What’s more, their opportunities to engage with

Tomorrow Trust never end. Once they graduate, students are accepted into

the alumni programme that offers a platform for graduates to participate

in the future of the organization and to network amongst themselves. This

programme serves a dual purpose. First, alumni are encouraged to give

back to fellow students in younger grades and contribute to the well-

being of children in similar circumstances. Second, our alumni programme

encourages peer support and networking by like-minded young people

who are able to share their stories of success. This final piece of the puzzle

encourages our graduates to be engaged, civic-minded individuals who

never stop giving back to their communities.

Alumni come to gatherings aimed at their needs addressing career support

and general life support.

In 2015, the Labour Force Survey indicated that 21.2% of graduates with a

tertiary education were unemployed.

One of our goals at Tomorrow Trust is to ensure that we prepare our

students for the world of work so that when they graduate, they are

employed, self-sustainable and not reliant on grants. In addition, should they

choose to continue furthering their studies, we assist them as much as we

can to secure further funding.

Of our 2016 graduates, currently 67% have secured employment on

Graduate Programmes, Internships, in firms for their Law or Accountancy

articles or are doing their Community Service at various Hospitals. 20% have

also managed to secure funding to further their studies outside of what the

Tomorrow Trust is able to assist them with and will be pursuing various Post-

Graduate qualifications.

a year of achievement, success and accomplishments.

Holiday School Programme on the 19th and the 26th

November 2016. During the Christmas Party each

learner completed a Christmas art activity where

they created Christmas cards, masks and Christmas

ornaments. Later in the day, Father Christmas

surprised the learners, dancing to Christmas Carols,

and handing out Christmas gifts to all the children.

The children received chips, marshmallows, toys,

puzzles and a Tomorrow Trust tog bag. The learners

were thrilled and super excited with their gifts and

were eagerly excited to share their Christmas cards

with their families and friends. We would like to thank

PepsiCo and Premier for their donations.

POST SECONDARY STUDENTS ATTEND LEAP PROGRAMMEFrom the 23rd July to the 31st of July, two of our Post-

Secondary students attended the LEAP programme

held at UCLA in the United States. Sandile Nyembe,

a 3rd Year BA General student at the University of

the Witwatersrand and Bongani Mabeleng, a 3rd

Year Bachelor of Accounting Sciences student at the

University of Johannesburg were selected to attend

this annual youth leadership programme. The week-

long programme consisted of a week of workshops,

motivational speeches, self-mastery exercises and

activities all dedicated at helping young adults uncover

the “real-life” skills needed to achieve great success. To

date, 20 Tomorrow Trust beneficiaries have attended

the LEAP programme.

Building Character

KEEPING MADIBA’S LEGACY ALIVEThe Tomorrow Trust wrapped up the month of July

in celebrating Nelson Mandela Legacy. This was

a fun filled day hosted at Saxonwold Primary that

brought Tomorrow Trust junior, senior and tertiary

going learners together in celebrating the legacy of

Madiba. The Grade 6 learners assisted with creating

a canvas and learning about the responsibilities of

a proactive citizen. They had discussed Mandela

Legacy and created words, that were added to the

canvas, that would best describe this remarkable man.

These creative learners put together an art piece that

Mandela himself would be proud of. The tertiary going

learners together with the senior learners participated

in a dialogue in which they discussed Madiba’s legacy

and how to emulate his values as young people. This

made for a vibrant discussion as the older and younger

learners interacted and shared ideas.

TOMORROW TRUST FEATURED ON CLIFF CENTRALWe had a great afternoon at Cliff Central, where Taryn

Coutinho and Minkateko Majoko shared the work that

the Tomorrow Trust does with talk show host Bongani

Tau. The Cliff Central Youth Leadership Platform gave

us an opportunity to be part of their talk on – “Power

of Education”.

SAGE FOUNDATION VOLUNTEER DAY“Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much.” We were fortunate to have Sage Foundation Volunteers

participate at our Junior Holiday school programme on the 5th and the 6th October. The days brought together

people from all walks of life to actively participate in the numeracy and literacy classrooms at the Junior Holiday

School Programme. Each volunteer got the opportunity to work closely with the Tomorrow Trust learners from Grade

R-7. We would like to thank Sage Foundation and all their volunteers for contributing to the academic development

of our children.

MAKRO INVOLVEMENT DAYOn the 7th July 2016, Makro staff members attended

the Holiday School Programme hosted at Houghton

Primary. The Tomorrow Trust transports the learners

out of their school in order to change the point of

reference which is poverty and struggle and allow

them to broaden their horizons as well as provide them

with facilities that are conducive to learning. As well as

engaging with volunteers enable the learners to receive

one-on-one attention and builds social skills.

PEPSICO SUPPORTS THE GIRL CHILDFor countless girls and women, sanitary pads are an

unaffordable Luxury. This often becomes the reason

for an orphaned and vulnerable girl child not attending

school. We are grateful and fortunate to have partners

such as PepSico who recognise the need to provide

this much needed resource to our girls. On Saturday

the 29th October, we were able to provide all our

Grade8-12 learners each with this essential need.

Thank you PepSico for your donation.

46

INVESTEC CRADLE COMMITTEEThe Tomorrow Trust would like to thank Investec

Cradle Committee for donating Scientific Calculators

and English Dictionaries to the Tomorrow Trust Senior

Holiday and Saturday school programme. A resource

like this will help us provide in depth learning to

learners who do not get an opportunity to use such

resources.

a team, being self- responsible and how your values fit

into who you are as a person and how to contribute

to a team were discussed. At the end of the Camp, all

learners were awarded gold medals and certificates for

and enjoyed the camp and we would like to thank

IQ Business and the committee for yet again putting

HSP LEARNERS GET THEIR EYES TESTED BY ST JOHN EYE CAREDuring the last Holiday School week, St John

Ambulance agreed to sponsor our learners to have

their eyes tested. 26 learners got their eyes tested on

4th October. Out of this, 20 learners got spectacles.

Today we collected the spectacles, and these learners

will now be more effective in class, as their eyesight

would be different. I am certain that our learners will

be excited to have these lovely spectacles, and that

the parents will greatly appreciate our intervention in

getting their kids the assistance they could not provide

due to different circumstances. We are quite grateful to

St John Ambulance and St John Eye Care for providing

this valuable support to our learners.

HAUTE BAG FESTIVALIt’s was all about style, fun and sunny times as well

as Giving Back! LISOF University students hosted the

the day included live music such as Bongani Zulu,

Indigo Reign, Eufora, man the fields, Kaylee and the

Mary Janes, Mark Stent craft beer, wine tastings, some

amazing young fashion designers as well as beauty and

style gurus. A big thank you to LISOF and the 3rd year

students for putting together such a superb event in

support of our work.

HOLIDAY SCHOOL STUDENTS VISIT PEPSICO PRODUCTION PLANTOn the 6th October 2016, the Tomorrow Trust learners

were afforded the opportunity to visit PepsiCo plant,

where all products are made. This visit focused on

the development of how Simba chips are made.

The learners were taken through the developmental

process of making Lays chips specific. Learners were

given the task to create their own lays using the favours

of their choice. The learners had to smell and guess

the different flavours and the winner of the challenge

got to choose the seasoning. Then the learners had

to design their own packs and names their products

and develop a marketing plan for their packet of

chips. We would like to thank the PepsiCo Research

and Development team for spending the day with our

learners and showing them the processes of making

chips.

The Tomorrow Trust is a firm believer in sustainability as an organisations ability to meet the needs of the present

whilst preparing to meet the needs that will arise in the future.

Freeing Freddie – the Dream Weaver

Brent Feinberg has written a magical story that gives both children and adults alike an opportunity to learn how to

release their fears and create a life filled with dreams. The main characters are Freddie and Mr. Cotton – through

a special relationship these two characters take you on an enchanted journey – through a magical forest, up

mountains and faraway lands.

Endorsed by Deepak Chopra and Russel Simmons you learn who you are and what you dream to achieve.

He has donated 70% back into Tomorrow Trust to support education for our children. Freeing Freddie – the Dream

Weaver to date raised R586 845 in support of the Tomorrow Trust.

A workbook written by Brent Feinberg and Kim Normand takes this experience deeper for each individual, instilling

and releasing real power that resides in each one of us. An activity book gives children under 12 a fun way to take

Freddie’s message into their lives. A glorious way to connect adults with children and youth.

Trustees’ Responsibilities and Approval

The trustees are required to maintain adequate accounting records and are responsible for the content and integrity of the annual financial statements and related financial information included in this report. It is their responsibility to ensure that the annual financial statements fairly present the state of affairs of the trust as at the end of the financial year and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period then ended, in conformity with accounting policies of the Trust. The external auditors are engaged to express an independent opinion on the annual financial statements.

The annual financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting policies of the Trust and are based upon appropriate accounting policies consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates.

The trustees acknowledge that they are ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established by the trust and place considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment. To enable the trustees to meet these responsibilities, the trustees set standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk. These controls are monitored throughout the trust and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring the trust’s business is conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above reproach. The focus of risk management in the trust is on identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk across the trust. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the trust endeavours to minimise it by ensurirng that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems and ethical behaviour are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints.

The trustees are of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management, that the system of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the annual financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable. and not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss.

The trustees have reviewed the trust’s cash flow forecast for the year to 31 December 2017 and, in light of this review and the current financial position, they are satisfied that the trust has or had access to adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

The external auditors are responsible for independently auditing and reporting on the trust’s annual financial statements. The annual financial statements have been examined by the trust’s external auditors and their report is presented on page 57-58.

The annual financial statements set out on pages 56-72, which have been prepared on the going concern basis, were approved by the trustees on 7 March 2017 and were signed on its behalf by:

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of The Tomorrow Trust

Our opinionIn our opinion, the financial statements of The Tomorrow Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2016 are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of accounting described in note 1 to the financial statements.

What we have audited

The Tomorrow Trust’s financial statements set out on pages 9 to 20 comprise:

• the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016;

• the statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended;

• the statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;

• the statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and

• the notes to the financial statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies.

Basis for opinionWe conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence

We are independent of the Trust in accordance with the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors Code of Professional Conduct for Registered Auditors (IRBA Code) and other independence requirements applicable to performing audits of financial statements in South Africa. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IRBA Code and in accordance with other ethical requirements applicable to performing audits in South Africa. The IRBA Code is consistent with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (Parts A and B).

Emphasis of Matter – Basis of AccountingWe draw attention to note 1 to the financial statements, which describes the basis of accounting. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the trusts’ own accounting policies to satisfy the financial information needs of the trusts beneficiaries. As a result, the financial statements may not be suitable for another purpose. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other informationThe trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Trustees’ Report and the Detailed Income Statement. Other information does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not and will not express an audit opinion or any formof assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the trustees for the financial statementsThe trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the basis of accounting described in the notes to the financial statements and for determining that the basis of preparation is acceptable in the circumstances and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

58


Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of The Tomorrow Trust

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the Trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statementsOur objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Trust to cease to continue as a going concern.

We communicate with the trustees regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

1. Presentation of annual financial statements

The annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies of the Trust. The annual financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. They are presented in South African Rands.

These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period.

1.1 Significant judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty

No significant estimates and judgements No significant estimates and judgements have been applied in the preparation of these financial statements.

1.2 Investment in subsidiary

In the trust’s separate annual financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

The cost of an investment in a subsidiary is the aggregate of: • the fair value, at date of exchange, of assets given or liabilities incurred or assumed and • any cost directly attributable to the purchase of the subsidiary.

1.3 Financial instruments

When a financial asset or financial liability is recognised initially, it is measured at the transaction price (including transaction costs) unless the arrangement constitutes, in effect, a financing transaction.

Financial instruments at amortised cost Debt instruments, are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments which are

classified as current assets or current liabilities are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash expected to be received or paid, unless the arrangement effectively constitutes a financing transaction.

At the end of each reporting date, the carrying amounts of assets held in this category are reviewed to determine whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. If so, an impairment loss is recognised.

Trade receivables Trade receivables are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using

the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the trust will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and other short-term highly liquid investments with original

maturities of three months or less.

Trade payables Trade payables are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective

interest rate method.

Trade payables are obligations on the basis of normal credit terms and do not bear interest.

Loans from related parties These include loans from subsidiaries are recognised initially at fair value plus direct transaction costs.

Loans from related parties are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortised cost.


Accounting Policies

64

1.4 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

1.5 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are tangible items that are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, or for rental to others or for administrative purposes; and are expected to be used during more than one period.

Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Cost include costs incurred initially to acquire or construct an item of property, plant and equipment and costs incurred subsequently to add to, replace part of, or service it. If a replacement cost is recognised in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised.

Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method to write down the cost, less estimated residual value over the useful life

of the property, plant and equipment as follows:

Item Average useful life Office equipment 6 years Computer equipment 3 years

The residual value, depreciation method and useful life of each asset are reviewed only where there is an indication that there has been a significant change from the previous estimate.

Gains and losses on disposals are recognised in surplus or deficit.

1.6 Leases

A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the lessee. All other leases are operating leases. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership.

Operating leases – lessee Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless:

• another systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the benefit from the leased asset, even if the payments are not on that basis, or

• the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation (based on published indexes or statistics) to compensate for the lessor’s expected inflationary cost increases.

1.7 Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.

The cost of books comprises the cost of purchasing the books. At each reporting date, inventories are assessed for impairment. If inventory is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in surplus or deficit.


Accounting Policies

65

1.8 Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits The cost of short-term employee benefits, (those payable within 12 months after the service is rendered, such as leave pay

and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits such as medical care), are recognised in the period in which the service is rendered and are not discounted.

The expected cost of compensated absences is recognised as an expense as the employees render services that increase their entitlement or, in the case of non-accumulating absences, when the absence occurs.

The expected cost of profit sharing and bonus payments is recognised as an expense when there is a legal or constructive

obligation to make such payments as a result of past performance.

1.9 Revenue

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and comprises donations, gala dinner sponsorships and book and good deeds bracelet sales.

Interest is recognised, in surplus or deficit, using the effective interest rate method.

Revenue for general donations are recognised when cash is received. If donations are made for a specific school year and the donor signed the contract or accepted the invoice, the revenue is accrued for in the specific school year.

Revenue for gala dinner sponsorships are recognised when cash is received.

Revenue from book sales and good deeds bracelet sales is recognised when the risk and rewards of the inventory is transferred to customers.

Donations in kind are not accounted for as income in surplus or deficit.

1.10 Cost of sales

When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

1.11 Trust capital

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Trust capital is classified as equity.

1.12 Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and comprises of donations received in advance.

Deferred revenue is recognised when cash is received that is specifically mandated to be spent on projects in the future.
