Thokozani Nokuthula Radebe
Chairperson
To have served on the Board of Management of the Durban Child and Youth Care Centre for over 15 years now has been a privilege. Whilst the length of my service seems short when one considers that this organisation has been serving our community for over 119 years, the length of my tenure is testament to my passion and dedication to its vision and mission. Leading the dynamic team, headed by Director Mandy Goble, who is passionate and driven in providing service excellence to vulnerable children and youth in KwaZulu Natal, continues to inspire my commitment to the leadership position which I hold. This resolute team have remained courageous and determined to stay the course in providing care and support to vulnerable children and youth, by overcoming every obstacle and challenge that this sector has to contend with.
The responsibility of ensuring good governance is an important role which our Board of Management team takes seriously. It is with gratitude and respect that I acknowledge our Board Members who provide their voluntarily service for the good of this organisation. Together we stand as “Guardians of the Vulnerable” in our society. Our responsibility to protecting the human, physical and financial resources of the organisation, now more than ever, is imperative to ensuring the integrity of the services we provide to our beneficiaries.
Despite the challenges we face in doing what is right, we choose not to be discouraged by the difficulties ahead, but rather let them serve as a reminder of the importance of standing up for what is just. Together we will continue to make a positive difference in our province. We are committed to doing the right thing, regardless of how difficult or long it takes to do it. ‘So, let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessings if we don’t give up!’ Galatians 6:9
