What it reported doing in 2024
Infinite family established and runs three launchpads (computer labs) in alexandra, soweto, and khayelitsha, south africa. Our launchpads are the first and essentially only opportunity local teens have to access computers and the internet. During 2025, 155 teens benefitted from 3,817 online, face-to-face mentoring sessions, more than 4,700 self-initiated skills-building activities, and 3,232 hours of school work, research and curricula. Mentorships average thirty (30) months with many lasting more than ten (10) years. Mentoring sessions were led by 120 volunteer video mentors who were located in 14 countries worldwide and 20 u.s. States during this fiscal year. Since 2008, ninety-seven (97%) of 12th grade net buddies qualified for advanced education. Eighty- seven percent (87%) qualify for south africa's top-tier universities. All graduates are among the first in their families to access tertiary studies and jobs in the formal sector. In 2025, volunteers invested 2,049 hours, valued at more than $74,000/r1.3 million in our teens.
