Of all our success stories, Thando Radebe’s is without a doubt one of our favourites. A then 24-year old joined Vuka Skhokho as a volunteer durring the latter part of 2017. He had just come out of rehabilitation following a long and nearly life destroying nyaope addiction and was not sure what his second chance would entail.

His shy but distinctly genuine passionate charisma quickly endeared him to everyone on the team. After a false start and another stint in rehab – this time with the support of his entire Vuka Skhokho family, Thando has been “clean” to date. Our “last born” currently does school talks for awareness on addiction.
