| The Skilltainer purchased from Bright Kid Foundation with Lotto Funding was delivered to Catholic Community Service (CCS) on 17 January 2018, amid jubilation of all CCS staff and beneficiaries. Despite delays, the Skilltainer arrived in time for activities planned for this year. Some beneficiaries even took time to pose for photos next to it, as CCS staff members finalised inspections of this newly acquired valuable asset.
The Skilltainer will be used as venue to conduct workshops and trainings that, in the past had to be held on booked venues. From now on, CCS will save on venue expenditure in order to use that money for even more services to beneficiaries. The Skilltainer will also serve as a meeting venue for CCS staff because the staff compliment of CCS has grown beyond the capacity of the current staff-room.

Edutainer® Comments
 We recently visited one of our most successful Edutainers®, at Delft in the Cape townships which is a prime example of what happens when the whole process works properly. A very dedicated girl, operating from a tiny site (the container barely squeezes in).... It feeds on being an evident success, parents want their children to go there and pay the fees."
