Communities Heart Beat

In the hustle and bustle of the busy Johannesburg city life we find ourselves at the very heart of the community. Where people who has not had the opportunity to complete school or go to university try and make it day by day. People from all ages and nationalities walking the streets in hope to find a job to provided an income for their families.



The view from RLabs Jozi


RLabs Jozi took to the streets today to interview some of this people. We found that unemployment was on everyone's lips. This gave us the opportunity to speak into peoples lives and tell them about the HOPE that RLabs Jozi intends to bring. Education, Empowerment, and skill. This is only the beginning and with the up and coming champions who has embraced the movement we will surely see a changed community.           

Rlabs Jozi; Action.

Smiling....!!!! In the beginning it was all about the volunteering hours needed in psychology. Little did I know, God has a brighter beautiful vision for our country. This beautiful surprise was waiting for our arrival. I have stopped complaining, I have stopped blaming other people for all the wrongs and bad in our country. I have stopped complaining because I am up on my feet doing something about the change that I want to see in our country. I realized complaining with no deeds makes me one of the people who contribute negatively to our country.

Rlabs is an NGO which started in Cape town, its all about making a difference and giving hope. There are many ways to do this and our focus at the moment is being trained Social Media wise in order for us to train other people too. Train the trainee project. Our online counselling will be open soon on mxit and this is our way of helping as an ambulance, its our transport to real counselling and invitations for Social Media training.

Join us to be the first champions of Jozi Rlabs. Give hope and Love.

"I need you, you need me. I love you, you love me. I pray for you, you pray for me. We are ALL a part of Gods' body. It is His will that every need be supplied." This are lyrics from the song 'I need you to survive, by Juanita Bynum,'

Street Journalism. #hopegivers

Its just a road, a path for cars and people to travel on, that's all i use to think of a road. At Serpentine street Hursthill Johannesburg; well this side a road looks like a boarder, a division, our own neighbours are living in boxes while we have too many rooms to spare. Don't give them a room, teach them how to mix cement and make bricks, teach them how to build. One of the residents Thomas Mthembu explained how difficult it is to get a job. Difficult to get a job, yes maybe, well if you don't have the right tools then definitely. So this is what Rlabs Jozi  Hopegivers are going to do, we will teach them how to use computers, the Internet, how to compile a C.V, how to search for jobs on the Internet, how to advertise their need for jobs on the Internet, we will help them sign up for an email, etc. Give Hope to someone, bring light, it is difficult to work in the dark.

A big house, the road, and the shacks. 

Rlabs Jozi #Hopegivers ; let us not turn a blind eye.

changing lives


To young people :

Our lives has to change, our careers, our talents, our style of approaching one another in a right way.
We need to have a better vision of our lives and we need to stand together so we together can help each other to be our wrong ways.

We need to come together, us as youngsters and we need to seek the guidance of our seniors so that we can be led into new ways, so that we can have a new understanding and so that we can create a new young people and change our lives and community.
