Help Khaya Lam (My Home) Land Reform Project with 5 volunteers for a B-BBEE assessment
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Khaya Lam is a project of the Free Market Foundation (FMF). The FMF is a public benefit organisation with 8 staff members (no owners, no shareholders), managed by a Board elected by paid-up members. Khaya Lam has to date transferred 18,500 properties from municipalities, turning black and coloured tenants into homeowners. Many of our funders require a B-BBEE certificate from us. It is on the basis of our recipients that we wish to be judged in this regard. We understand that as a non-profit classified as a Qualifying Small Enterprise (QSE), a B-BBEE certificate is obtained through a verification process by a SANAS accredited agency, unless the non-profit is 51% or 100% black-owned, in which case a sworn affidavit can be used to claim Level 2 or 1 status, respectively. As stated above, we do not qualify on ownership grounds. We have been quoted a sizeable sum for an assessment. We are looking for a volunteer who is in a position to assist with the assessment which will make it possible for us to continue to provide title deeds to black South Africans.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
