Nicolas Manyike to launch a foundation that will focus on boys. The launch will take place on the 10th of November 2018 at Metropolitan Centre in Braamfontein. 

He said, “Not all men are trash. Society focuses more on grooming girls to behave and be good girls, who will be good wives one day in future,  what about boys?

“Sadly, there are many things going wrong in our communities and the country at large, which are rooted in the absence of guidance in our families, having absent fathers has caused too much damage to our society,” said Nicolas.

Father's should play their part, we should protect our women, when a men kill women, is killing a nation, we know that a home it's a home because of women.

Manyike further said, “Nobody, is born a criminal, rapist or abuser. Something goes wrong in our childhood which forms a platform from which that behavior springs.

“However, the foundation will be an atmosphere where the boys shall be empowered to take up their rightful positions in their communities, to start entrepreneurship journey early and be a better man, we are seeking sponsorship for our programme. We call out help to government,corporates and individuals to come on board. 

“We have 20 boys already that we are mentoring to be entrepreneurs and be a better man. we aim to bridge the gap by impacting boys’ lives and empowering them as they grow up to be better men that won’t be labelled as trash due to their behavior and this is an opportunity to also start entrepreneurship journey early. 

“The foundation aims to restore love and forgiveness at a family level, and if this can become the foundation of every life, then respect for each other will return and communities will change. This is what we hope to see coming out of the boys,” said Nicolas
