Our focus

Opportunity should not depend on who you know.

Many young people are searching for work, experience, training or a way to start earning. Finding the right opportunity can be just as difficult as applying for it.

About Teckhula

Technology with a human purpose.

Teckhula Foundation is a South African non-profit initiative focused on using technology to improve access to opportunities for young people.

Our work is not limited to university graduates. We recognise that young people enter the economy through different paths. Some have degrees, some have diplomas, certificates or practical experience, while others are still looking for their first opportunity.

We aim to make the opportunity landscape easier to understand and navigate by bringing useful information, digital tools, employment resources and trusted platforms closer to the people who need them.

Our mission

Use technology to connect youth with pathways to opportunity.

Our approach

Inform, connect, equip and create access.

Who we serve

One youth population. Many different starting points.

There is no single route into employment. Teckhula is designed to help young people identify the route that makes sense for where they are today.

Beyond Teckhula

We don't need to own every opportunity.

Sometimes the most useful thing we can do is point someone towards a platform, organisation or programme that can help them.

Teckhula aims to become a useful starting point for young people by recommending reputable employment, training and opportunity platforms rather than expecting every opportunity to live on one website.
