The year of 2017/18 is our 10th year in loving action and deeply committed contribution to making a difference in our beloved South Africa. It is a milestone! We pause and reflect on the wonderful achievements of our fellow TRI students who have embraced personal values-based leadership and live to be an example. Their success is our success. In true Ubuntu Spirit there is not one without the other!
THE CHANGE AGENT…
this is how we address crime in South Africa.
I am deeply humbled as I witness incredible courage amongst our students. We meet them in some of the toughest environments and extend to them the invite of change. Let us not underestimate what this means! It is for each student a complete rebuild of what he or she knows. It is a daily challenge of meeting and shifting the old energy and choosing a different approach.
You will in our annual report meet these courageous beings and witness what they do with a changed mindset; a mindset that no longer violates or perpetrates; a mindset that cares deeply to restore and heal , to nurture, inspire and to contribute. They have joined the heartbeat of transformation and play a significant role in guiding our SA youth and communities towards a greater future!
May you enjoy our Annual Report
With Love & Appreciation

We are delighted to share our Annual Report 2012/13 with our network.
Foreword by SmilingOne Founder:
As a 16-year-old member of the Thug Life gang puts it, “gang life is like a religion to my family. My father and grandfather were in gangs and they have done time in jail – I will probably end up there as well. It is the way of life here; it is where you learn about respect and get status.”
Our year has been one of fine tuning our approach, merging deeper into the resource we are and walking each step true to our hearts. We are all shareholders in the wellbeing of our society – the SmilingOne Team takes this responsibility very seriously and we know how important our puzzle piece is!
What touches me deeply is that 9 million children (48%) are growing up with absent but living fathers! 3.3 million young people are not in education, training or employment. And as of March 2012: 32% of all inmates in SA prisons were under the age of 25. I experience youth in dire need of inspiration and direction!
We have harvested incredible results from our five years pro-active research! It has proven to us that a very effective way to prevent/divert our youth and youngsters from pursuing the path of crime is to shape positive Role Models who meet the youth at risk where they are at and inspire/guide them towards a different path. This is what the SmilingOne Team is deeply passionate about and invest in. We find and educate these potential Change Agents in some of the most challenged SA environments...
MORE IN THE REPORT!
My heart continues to be moved deeply by our Change Agent work. We have completed another year - our 9th - of bringing C.O.C. Education to some of the most challenged environments in our Society. I am in AWE of the results we are experiencing; so
many 'seeds' are sprouting and watering other 'seeds' in the process. An awakened individual understands that he/she has so many more options than choosing a life of crime and destruction. I see so much potential; the fire is burning in me/us to do so
much more.
I am aware that we would have achieved nothing without the incredible commitment of men and women who dedicated themselves wholeheartedly to this path. We know that it is not an easy one! My gratitude goes to each of you for having had the courage to choose YOU, for investing in becoming your best version. Life tests us over and over again so that we may purify our intentions and strip off all the layers of past limitations. Consciousness is a daily GYM. There is nothing more attractive than someone who radiates values-based leadership and generously shares of their awakening. This is the true Magic of a Change Agent.
The Change Agent....this is how we address crime in South Africa.

FOREWORD by Founder Karina Andersen
“Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is not path and leave a trail”
As I journey with our Change Agents through their Circles of Change (COC) I wake more and more up to this inspiring quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson. When each of us live into our Golden Thread and follow its calling, Magic takes place! Each project that we have been so lucky to witness and gently guide in our Change Agent work this year inspires to move beyond what we think we know and open ourselves to the grand adventure! I am deeply grateful for a year that has emptied me and opened me further. Only when we can be fully present with ‘the other’ can we deeply honour their journey and its unfolding. Here at SmilingOne we are curious about the puzzle piece that each of our Students are in our greater puzzle - their unique contribution. We walk hand in hand, we spin the COC Engine inwardly and outwardly, we shape and co-create inspiring projects that heal and inspire youth, families and communities.
Our annual report is a testimony of how each Change Agent leaves a trail as they are drawn by the inner pull towards their purpose - embracing the share they own in the well-being of our Society!
THANK YOU FOR VISITING AND LISTENING ♥ KARINA

other organizations and
communities around the world
to change and save lives.

PURPOSE

MATTERS
IMPACT
The Mayimba Project officially
became a non-profit 501c
September 2015 but its roots go
back to 2012. Its founder Marial
Alvarez also known as
“Mayimba”, a survivor herself,
chose to use her voice and life
lessons to turn negatives into
positives. It started with one
person and a dream. Fast
forward to today, Ms. Alvarez
and her continuously growing
team of advocates worldwide
have dedicated themselves to
supporting and mentoring
survivors. Through educational
and social outreach, we teach
people to value their lives, their
health and their future goals.
With hundreds of success stories
and lives saved, we strive to
continue making a difference.
THE DIFFERENCE
The Mayimba Project acts as a voice for the
people around the world. What separates us
from other organizations is that all of our
advocates, counselors, and helpers are
what make our team. Our motivation IS our
team. We choose every day to want a
better life, regardless of our past, which
brings more value to us as a whole.
Although we can refer victims to
professional help, our support group has
proven to be more effective through our
success testimonials.
Personal stories, publicly expressed, provide
others with a better understanding, even to
those who cannot relate. They demonstrate
the necessity for improvement in our
communities.
