Our Values 
LOVE In our experience of Love we find ourselves in a place of unconditional sharing, holding no judgment or expectation. As we embrace Love within, we embrace Love in ALL. LEARNING We enjoy the process of learning. We are Students and Explorers of life, widening our horizon and adding to our portfolio. ADDING VALUE We enjoy adding value to individuals and whole communities. Adding value to the human potential is a privilege and assists the process of building bridges, breaking down the most resistant walls. ONENESS We believe in UNIQUENESS and UNITY. ‘It is about understanding oneself and the role one plays in the bigger ‘puzzle of life’ - the greater purpose. On one hand being tiny compared to the whole – teaching us humbleness – and on the other being highly valuable as each piece of the puzzle is of inestimable value to the wholeness – teaching us worthiness.’ INTEGRITY We enjoy working with our clients and each other openly, honestly and sincerely. We walk the talk and deliver what we promise. OUR ENVIRONMENT We care deeply for our environment and inspire change by our own living example

Letter from Franklin’s desk 
It can be a big wow when you slow down from the business of everyday life, and you observe where you are coming from and where you going to. 
The past year has been one of those wow moments when the end of another year arrived in a surprisingly exciting form, when we realise that we are having so much fun and the diary has almost no days left. As the magic of development and beauty graced us till the very last of the month. 
We have celebrated our ‘Change Agents’ in the making graduating in Malmesbury and Worcester Prison, our Ivy Nyovane Teachers graduating their Montessori Training; We have been incredibly blessed with both our ‘Parole Portfolio’ where you wil meet Monwabisi Mbetane, who graces his community with ballroom dancing lessons as part of his COC Activation and further development at Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre. You will also find our outreach for lovely musical talent in the community of Elsies River. 
So join us as we say farewell to 2014, with hugs and warm wishes as we spend quality time with our families during the festive season, discovering new horizons to inspire us for a new year. 
Enjoy Turqouise – the December edition for 2014. 
Happy holidays from the desk! Love Franklin 
FOREWORD
LETTER FROM THE CEO 
As we approach the end of another incredibly inspiring year I express my deep-felt gratitude to every single Change Agent who has added their ‘magic' make all our SmilingOne Projects flourish in the most beautiful and organic way. I am so in AWE of you! With a heartfelt desire to be all you can you ‘spill over’ positively in your communities. It inspires me deeply and fuels our intention to do so much more! I have learnt much this year from each one of you. I admire your courage to walk truth and stand ‘naked’ in this truth. I know the path is not easiest one. However… have seen each one of you embrace your mountains as precious gifts and in doing so you have risen beyond. As John C Maxwell said: “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows way.” This is my experience of you! 
Thank you! 
To our dear friends, sponsors and loyal supporters. Thank you for loving support of SmilingOne Foundation through 2014. We have been incredible blessed to walk this journey with all of you.

PUT ON YOUR DANCING SHOES 
Monwabisi’s COC activation by Franklin It was 2009 that Monwabisi Mbetane saw one of the first Change Agents in training at Brandvlei Maximum Prison, holding the leadership manual called ‘The Responsible Individual’. Little did he know that driven young men is on a journey of leadership and self-guidance. One, he would soon follow. 
“Well I left Brandvlei and the boys left my room so I still had the manual and I went through it myself. When I left Brandvlei Prison I went to Heldestroom Prison. There I went through the manual and tried making sense of the manual. After a while I went to Malmesbury Prison and I found Bradley and Malcolm there so I asked them if they are having sessions. I started fully to engage with the manual with the help of a guide. 
In April 2014 when I was released from Malmesbury Prison I decided to join the programme to further develop myself and to see what I can do for the community of Langa. A lot of things have changed, and I noticed that there existed a need for activities for the youth. When I got involved with SmilingOne I realised to be fully activated in my Circle Of Change, I needed to have a community project, volunteering myself which is my ‘Caring’. I have ballroom classes with the kids in the community at the Monwabisi Community Centre, I have realised that I can add to the value of the community by planting a seed. In my Circle Of Change I am also activated in my ‘Sharing’ where I have weekly sessions and it helps to my development, where I visit all the areas of myself, body, mind and soul. This helps me to understand why certain things challenge me, where is it coming from and why am I inspired to do things. A sort of interrogation to myself. And my ‘Resource’ is my studies, where I study a Bookkeeping course to improve my skills. And I also have a small entrepreneur business to sustain myself. In my studies I’m very confident in accounting and economy, having to pay more attention to project administration and business calculation. Further on my studies are going well. With my business I can definitely see that its growing and me and my partner are reviewing everything to detail. There are some challenges but I guess my studies gives me a change to deal with it, where I can overview and calculate how to manage the business. 
My motivation for other parolees or those who are still in prison is to connect with what you were doing in prison, meaning that you must find something inside prison that you are going to keep yourself busy with that can develop you for when you come out of prison. Set yourself goals to focus on because outside is a different environment than inside. And there are many things that can distract you from your goals but hold on to focus and be patient. Accept the place where you find yourself, don’t compare yourself with others and material things, indulging in things you can’t afford. Stay humble and focused and the doors will open for you.”

REINTEGRATION 
Malcolm’s ‘Car Project’ (The Boys from Ocean View) by Malcolm Booysen 
When I started to do the ‘Car Project’ in Ocean View my main inspiration was to give back to the community and share myself with my community, the passion that I have for cars. And little did I know that there is so much more in the detail that I ever imagined. Where the past few months has taught me a lot about myself and with the ‘Car Project’ that I did not know. 
I suffered an injury to my foot while at work and it took me to a deeper process where I had to connect with my inner-self. When my foot was injured it restrained me from a lot of stuff that I wanted to do. I even could not drive anymore. Moving a lot in the momentum, it taught me a valuable lesson to sit and observe. Now our ‘Car Project’ is slower but it is gaining momentum, connecting to the fact that the ‘Car Project’ is us. Realising that the project gives us more angles on who we are. Meaning that we are making progress the way we make progress within ourselves. Everything takes time and with time comes the learning of patience. With sessions things are great, where I get to explore all the concepts going back to the foundation of it all. Exploring wind, mirror, challenges in a different angle. Franklin has opened up a new window for me to explore my journey on the outside, connecting with it inside. Realising that the project gives us more angles on who we are. Meaning that we are making progress the way we make progress within ourselves. 
The community has welcomed me with open arms as they saw the initiative behind our project. As I get so much support from them. The past few months we have been to ‘spin offs’, drifting and a lot of events where kids and other mechanics got involved. And it was such a blessing to be part of it all. 
We still have a path to walk with our ‘Car Project’ and ourselves but I believe we are where we need to be in the project because there is still a lot more to learn. As we next tackle the interior and exterior.

SA PRISONS: CERTIFICATE CEREMONY WORCESTER PRISON 
by Karina Andersen 
It is with great JOY in my heart that I congratulate three more graduates Worcester Prison. To graduate the first phase of The Responsible Individual means you have invited a deeper awareness into your experience. It means that you are not looking at outer environment with judgment or blame; you know that what see 'out there' is merely a reflection of lives deep within you. It takes courage to invite these new angles on life and attend ‘old chapters within’ that we are holding onto so tight. 
We celebrate and congratulate: 
Ebraheem Jacobs: "I am dedicated and live honestly, being trustworthy towards life, sharing my experiences and the quality I have achieved in discovering responsible individual am” 
Kurtwell Williams: “In the understanding of myself I tap into my full potential, realising inner wisdom… from that state of awareness I serve and guide myself. For only through serving and guiding myself have I gained a deep understanding of my own inner wisdom and power. This is from where I serve and guide others.” 
James Arendse: “In my community I enjoy the change bring and lead by example showing a more positive life with all there is to gain.” 
OUR PROJECTS – CHANGE AGENTS IN THE MAKING
We also celebrate SmilingOne Change Agent and TRI Facilitator Daniel Davids who has guided the TRI Students throughout 2014. What a privilege to experience your growth Daniel! better way to showcase your skill than allow the graduates share a few words about you: 
“Daniel is just amazing. He sensitive when dealing with us. When I am vulnerable due to past hurts and pains that comes up he is compassionate caring. He very considerate when guides me through the challenge. He comforts compassionately and guides me with great wisdom and depth of understanding." 
“I have the utmost respect for Daniel’s coaching style because he put sugar and spice in one pot. He let you feel worthy and welcome in his sessions. Daniel approach every situation with baby hands to make you feel comfortable and relax open up towards him. He has a clever way of changing his style because he surprises you with a new angle and in that always learn something new." 
“I am once again proud and lucky that have gotten the opportunity in meeting such an excellent coach as Daniel. He has inspired me to discover myself. HIs approach in coaching gave me deep insight to my actions, emotions and challenges." 
It is always through ‘the other’ that we truly see’ ourselves. We give thanks for an incredible process at Worcester Prison this year! We have four amazing coaches and change agents in training who impact their environments positively… the three graduates are a wonderful testimony of this… many more to come as we journey on! 
HELDERSTROOM QUALITY ASSURANCE PROCESS 
We are EXCITED to renew our commitment COC Activation at Helderstroom Prison. It is of great value to pause for a moment review process and renew commitment. This serves both the path of inner development as it serves developing individuals and challenged communities within our prisons. It is important to understand your motivation and have a clear objective. We thank DCS for the partnership and look forward to another exciting year of shaping Change Agents! We have had a strong group highly committed inmates who have journeyed with SmilingOne through 2014. Men who have started to not just speak change but to live it every single day. These are the Change Agents in making! 
OUR PRISON PROCESS HAS 7 YEARS ANNIVERSARY IN SOUTH AFRICA 
It was a very special November month as we looked back on 7 years active inside SA prisons and the shaping of our COC College for Change Agents. It has been such a beautiful and organic process that has allowed our students to move deeper into their being - ‘the gentle giant’ - who moves from his heart and inspires community to do the same. Each day a new student joins. We listen deeply and allow the unfolding of each process. are committed to passionate about unlocking potential. 
We give thanks to every single student who has journeyed with us the past 7 years. Thank you for your commitment to making yourself a priority. In healing you, you heal communities and families. 
WE ALL OWN A SHARE IN THE WELLBEING OF OUR SOCIETY

An Inside View 
Pushing Pawns Not Drugs by Marco 
90% of all youth between the ages of 18-25 years old admitted to the Worcester Male Correctional Centre was guilty for possession and use of narcotics. Even most house breaking and theft cases are linked to the use of narcotics. When will our youth change their behaviour towards drugs? In a simple answer, when they understand the hazards of the harmful practice of drugs. But there is a difference between knowing something and understanding something. 
Too little attention is given to the key of self-education in the early stages of life, like primary school level. Implementing and practicing the gifts of a healthy lifestyle, helping them understand the influences of drugs physically and mentally, involving local and international sport stars to carry forward the message, saying no to substance abuse. For realising that it is possible to live a drug free life without giving up certain aspects of their cultures. 
For instance many youth believe in partying, coming together and having a fun time, sharing and being united in our activities. We often want to forget about our challenges, which stretch as far as poverty to peer pressure, domestic violence but to name a few. We need to make use of facilities at hand like sports fields, community centres, including different activities, for us to learn how to have fun constructively. 
More time and effort must be invest in our youth to make good choices, starting at an early age. We need the community to spend more time building on such activities. We can not wait for them to enter the Correctional system, our community needs to start now.

Nyanga Youth Development Program 
by Franklin Esau 
Ivy Nyovane – the principal 
A journey of vibrant colours and beauty as the flower possess, for the Principal of the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre. After 4 years as a TRI student Vuyiswa is now the first female SmilingOne ‘Change Agent’ in the making. As I enter the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre one of the teachers mentions that Vuyiswa is in the office. To no surprise she jokes that I always catch her with work, not to mention the load of files that is on her desk, while she still has time to smile at a joke. 
It has been 5 years that Vuyiswa has been with the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre and she is enjoying every moment of it. She first volunteered to help with the caring of the kids, where Ivy Nyovane only functioned as a Creche and After Care. Later when they developed into an Educare, she became one of the teachers. With further development she became the Principal and teacher for one of the Grade R classes. 
She describes her journey as the Principal, one of many aspects in the process of being a woman. She believes she has still a lot to learn when it comes to administration and day to day running of the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre. And her notebook comes quite handy in the process of being a principal, where documentation is the key to staying organise, with arrangements of the Centre. 
In her own life it has taught her to arrange and list her priorities, to have a place for everything in her life to revisit when needed. She cannot take all the credit for the operations of the Centre when she has such a wonderful team of teachers, along with the Founder of the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre, the Care Taker and the Security and Maintenance, each playing their special and individual part. For she believe that they are growing because they are a team. 
SmilingOne salutes you Vuyiswa for the love and strength – sharing yourself with others – through being a resource and care!

CMD – Central Music Development 
by Franklin Esau 
Many may ask why I chose the name Central Music District. I was inspired when I listened to my heart (the centre of creating music) to aid others in finding the centre of their music and developing it. Central music District is a project of musical talent and developing it to understanding yourself musically. 
In the past three months I have connected deeply with the sounds of music, and those not privilege enough to find out what their talent and passion is worth to them and those who listen to them. As part of my Circle Of Change Activation I am meant to have a Caring project that gives back to the community. I discovered the gift I have by being on the platform of music and inviting others to be part of it. In the community of Elsies River I spread the word and soon two wonderful talents followed – Stanford and Latoya. We have had an amazing experience of walking together and decided to record a song that will capture our community, that we call ‘Chucks’. Soon after with welcoming applause from the community we found another young talent interested to explore her gift. And unlike Stanford and Latoya who are rappers, she is a song bird with an angelic voice that can smooth any message. We recorded a song together called ‘Peace’. 
Latoya: To be involved with Franklin in our music and talent is a dream for me. It made me realise that I can be a better person. At first I did not believe that my talent would be noticed. Now I believe that I can be the person I dream about, a rapper. 
Stanford: It is exciting to be with CMD working on my skills and it is very fruitful. I definitely enjoy the ride; I would like to get more involved as my work only allows me minimal time. 
Robyn: It nice to make something of my talent and I hope to go much further. I am just grateful for the opportunity. 
A large extend we want to urge all young folks to explore their talent, giving them an opportunity to find themselves and the light they shine within, creating a platform in communities like Elsies River. Right now, we are shooting two music videos and I hope you are going to love the music.

SKILLS AND DEVELOPMENT 
Montessori 
We have been excited for so many months now looking forward to our graduation and it was lovely. Me and Ma Esther is so happy that we could pass as Montessori teachers and further equip in the process as Educators at Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre. 
Our workshop this month was creative with colourful sharing. It helped me understand relationships with new people I have met. There were many challenges on the road and for me it was mainly computer class but I managed to pull through. For Ma Esther it was a huge challenge to manage her time now that she is studying at Montessori, so she is grateful for her team of teachers at Ivy Nyovane who helped her managing her time. 
Now that we have seen the progress and learning in the Montessori classes we are setting new goals to further our education in uplifting ourselves to give more to Ivy Nyovane Educare. Thank you to SmilingOne for helping us achieving this goal. It made us better teachers to give better service to the community.

SKILLS AND DEVELOPMENT
SMILE FOR THE CAMERA – Capturing the Change Agents 
By Rox Dalton 
Last year, as a part of my Masters Degree in Documentary Arts at the University of Cape Town, I made a short film that led me into prisons. This year we were tasked with creating a much longer format documentary and due to the overwhelmingly positive response we got from the first film, I decided to expand on the short film and make a film that explored much more in detail the topic of the rehabilitation of an inmate. 
An aspect I didn’t explore in the short film was what happened to an inmate who according to the systems in place was classified as ‘successfully rehabilitated’ and was released back into society. This led me to the SmilingOne Foundation and two unique individuals who are SmilingOne Change Agents, Malcolm and Franklin. I met them together with the founder of the organization: Karina Anderson. Our first meeting took place in front of the fire of Karina’s lounge where we discussed everything from rehabilitation to filmmaking. I knew quite soon into our conversation that I would love to incorporate these two fascinating people into my documentary. By focusing on their lives and the programmes they are involved in as a part of their circles of change, a concept carried by SmilingOne Change Agents, I hope to explore the power of rehabilitation and confront the judgments we as a society often place on anyone with a criminal record. 
The journey so far has allowed me and my crew the chance to meet many more remarkable characters and has allowed us a glimpse into worlds and sub- cultures we would otherwise never get a chance to meet. Through Malcolm, we met Ocean View and the group he runs that fixes old beetles. Malcolm comes alive when he talks about cars and his passion clearly inspires the group he works worth it. We are all excited to capture the final spraying of the beetle they have been working hard on. Franklin introduced us to Elsies hip hop, ball room dancing Langa and a unique crèche in Nyanga, that is about to step out from the financial assistance Smiling One has provided and begin to generate their own income using the tools they have learned thus far. Our crew is looking forward to capturing the process as they build a small shop on the premises at the end of this week. 
Along with his musical ability, Franklin is always a source of inspiration and his positivity is contagious. He shares his life with a sense of honesty and authenticity that creates a space for those he interacts with to do the same. He also always has time to laugh and enjoy the company he is with which means he is a constant reminder that life should be a celebration. 
Malcolm is responsible for inspiring one of the key themes of the documentary which is “leaving your mark”. When he was explaining the spinning culture in Ocean View and how spinning or drifting can be a physical way of leaving your mark on a place, I realized that the change agents such as Malcolm and Franklin are also leaving their mark on the communities they engage with. Their presence uplifts and inspires positive change and creates spaces for those around them to learn from them and join them as they collect more puzzle pieces for the puzzle of hope and healing both appear to be building. My only hope is that this documentary can capture a small part of their journey and inspire others to leave their own marks in ways that can uplift those around them as well. 
Thank you Malcolm, Franklin & Karina for allowing us a chance to follow your journey over the last few months! 
Lots of love, Rox, Mike & Des
FUTURE PROJECTS AND EVENTS 
Future Projects and Events 
Cape Argus Pick n Pay Momentum Cycle Tour

The SmilingOne Fund Raising Album 
Be sure not to miss this. We have a Fund Raising Album coming soon. With great artists such as Lionel Bastos SAMA Award winner, it is an album not to miss. Check our website or facebook page for more information. 
Quantum Warrior – The Future Of The Mind 
In many of our human journeys we hold significant gratitude to our thoughts and the ability of the mind to endure or focus. With scientific discoveries and complex methodology we discover that this month’s book is one for complexity and innovative processing, made simpler to understand exactly the ability and power of the mind together with our human journey. The SmilingOne Foundation guides leaders through a simple form of attending to one-self, unlocking a potential that not only aid in self-discovery but also creating a self-identity. 
When I started reading the Quantum Warrior - The Future Of The Mind, written by John Kehoe – I saw an attendance to discover the locked potential of the mind. Using vast scientific jargons and highly religious terms I must say had me thinking that it is a book for the tertiary community who chooses the field of Cognitive Science. Surprisingly, is it explained in detail and conveyed in simpler form. Aiding in discovering more of one-self on a conscious understanding. 
In so I continue my attendance of self-discovery to understand more and open myself to learning about my journey. Let us welcome the teachings of life and share ourselves with each other. FUTURE PROJECTS AND EVENTS

As the magic of development and beauty graced us till the very last of the month.

However… have seen each one of you embrace your mountains as precious gifts and in doing so you have risen beyond. As John C Maxwell said: “A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows way.” This is my experience of you! Thank you! To our dear friends, sponsors and loyal supporters.

  • 8. OUR PROJECTS – REINTEGRATION PUT ON YOUR DANCING SHOES Monwabisi’s COC activation by Franklin It was 2009 that Monwabisi Mbetane saw one of the first Change Agents in training at Brandvlei Maximum Prison, holding the leadership manual called ‘The Responsible Individual’. Little did he know that driven young men is on a journey of leadership and self-guidance. One, he would soon follow. “Well I left Brandvlei and the boys left my room so I still had the manual and I went through it myself. When I left Brandvlei Prison I went to Heldestroom Prison. There I went through the manual and tried making sense of the manual. After a while I went to Malmesbury Prison and I found Bradley and Malcolm there so I asked them if they are having sessions. I started fully to engage with the manual with the help of a guide. In April 2014 when I was released from Malmesbury Prison I decided to join the programme to further develop myself and to see what I can do for the community of Langa. A lot of things have changed, and I noticed that there existed a need for activities for the youth. When I got involved with SmilingOne I realised to be fully activated in my Circle Of Change, I needed to have a community project, volunteering myself which is my ‘Caring’. I have ballroom classes with the kids in the community at the Monwabisi Community Centre, I have realised that I can add to the value of the community by planting a seed. In my Circle Of Change I am also activated in my ‘Sharing’ where I have weekly sessions and it helps to my development, where I visit all the areas of myself, body, mind and soul. This helps me to understand why certain things challenge me, where is it coming from and why am I inspired to do things. A sort of interrogation to myself. And my ‘Resource’ is my studies, where I study a Bookkeeping course to improve my skills. And I also have a small entrepreneur business to sustain myself. In my studies I’m very confident in accounting and economy, having to pay more attention to project administration and business calculation. Further on my studies are going well. With my business I can definitely see that its growing and me and my partner are reviewing everything to detail. There are some challenges but I guess my studies gives me a change to deal with it, where I can overview and calculate how to manage the business. My motivation for other parolees or those who are still in prison is to connect with what you were doing in prison, meaning that you must find something inside prison that you are going to keep yourself busy with that can develop you for when you come out of prison. Set yourself goals to focus on because outside is a different environment than inside. And there are many things that can distract you from your goals but hold on to focus and be patient. Accept the place where you find yourself, don’t compare yourself with others and material things, indulging in things you can’t afford. Stay humble and focused and the doors will open for you.” OUR PROJECTS – REINTEGRATION “…I decided to join the programme to further develop myself and to see what I can do for the community of Langa. For a lot of things have changed and I notice there existed a need for activities…”
  • 9. OUR PROJECTS – REINTEGRATION REINTEGRATION Malcolm’s ‘Car Project’ (The Boys from Ocean View) by Malcolm Booysen When I started to do the ‘Car Project’ in Ocean View my main inspiration was to give back to the community and share myself with my community, the passion that I have for cars. And little did I know that there is so much more in the detail that I ever imagined. Where the past few months has taught me a lot about myself and with the ‘Car Project’ that I did not know. I suffered an injury to my foot while at work and it took me to a deeper process where I had to connect with my inner-self. When my foot was injured it restrained me from a lot of stuff that I wanted to do. I even could not drive anymore. Moving a lot in the momentum, it taught me a valuable lesson to sit and observe. Now our ‘Car Project’ is slower but it is gaining momentum, connecting to the fact that the ‘Car Project’ is us. Realising that the project gives us more angles on who we are. Meaning that we are making progress the way we make progress within ourselves. Everything takes time and with time comes the learning of patience. With sessions things are great, where I get to explore all the concepts going back to the foundation of it all. Exploring wind, mirror, challenges in a different angle. Franklin has opened up a new window for me to explore my journey on the outside, connecting with it inside. Realising that the project gives us more angles on who we are. Meaning that we are making progress the way we make progress within ourselves. The community has welcomed me with open arms as they saw the initiative behind our project. As I get so much support from them. The past few months we have been to ‘spin offs’, drifting and a lot of events where kids and other mechanics got involved. And it was such a blessing to be part of it all. We still have a path to walk with our ‘Car Project’ and ourselves but I believe we are where we need to be in the project because there is still a lot more to learn. As we next tackle the interior and exterior. *Check out our facebook page for future updates on our Ocean View boys and their ‘Car Project’! OUR PROJECTS – REINTEGRATION

OUR PROJECTS – CHANGE AGENTS IN THE MAKING SA PRISONS: CERTIFICATE CEREMONY WORCESTER PRISON by Karina Andersen It is with great JOY in my heart that I congratulate three more graduates Worcester Prison. To graduate the first phase of The Responsible Individual means you have invited a deeper awareness into your experience. It means that you are not looking at outer environment with judgment or blame; you know that what see 'out there' is merely a reflection of lives deep within you. It takes courage to invite these new angles on life and attend ‘old chapters within’ that we are holding onto so tight. We celebrate and congratulate: Ebraheem Jacobs: "I am dedicated and live honestly, being trustworthy towards life, sharing my experiences and the quality I have achieved in discovering responsible individual am” Kurtwell Williams: “In the understanding of myself I tap into my full potential, realising inner wisdom… from that state of awareness I serve and guide myself. For only through serving and guiding myself have I gained a deep understanding of my own inner wisdom and power. This is from where I serve and guide others.” James Arendse: “In my community I enjoy the change bring and lead by example showing a more positive life with all there is to gain.” OUR PROJECTS – CHANGE AGENTS IN THE MAKING

  • 13. OUR PROJECTS – CHANGE AGENTS IN THE MAKING An Inside View Pushing Pawns Not Drugs by Marco 90% of all youth between the ages of 18-25 years old admitted to the Worcester Male Correctional Centre was guilty for possession and use of narcotics. Even most house breaking and theft cases are linked to the use of narcotics. When will our youth change their behaviour towards drugs? In a simple answer, when they understand the hazards of the harmful practice of drugs. But there is a difference between knowing something and understanding something. Too little attention is given to the key of self-education in the early stages of life, like primary school level. Implementing and practicing the gifts of a healthy lifestyle, helping them understand the influences of drugs physically and mentally, involving local and international sport stars to carry forward the message, saying no to substance abuse. For realising that it is possible to live a drug free life without giving up certain aspects of their cultures. For instance many youth believe in partying, coming together and having a fun time, sharing and being united in our activities. We often want to forget about our challenges, which stretch as far as poverty to peer pressure, domestic violence but to name a few. We need to make use of facilities at hand like sports fields, community centres, including different activities, for us to learn how to have fun constructively. More time and effort must be invest in our youth to make good choices, starting at an early age. We need the community to spend more time building on such activities. We can not wait for them to enter the Correctional system, our community needs to start now. OUR PROJECTS – CHANGE AGENTS IN THE MAKING

  • 15. OUR PROJECTS –COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Nyanga Youth Development Program by Franklin Esau Ivy Nyovane – the principal A journey of vibrant colours and beauty as the flower possess, for the Principal of the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre. After 4 years as a TRI student Vuyiswa is now the first female SmilingOne ‘Change Agent’ in the making. As I enter the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre one of the teachers mentions that Vuyiswa is in the office. To no surprise she jokes that I always catch her with work, not to mention the load of files that is on her desk, while she still has time to smile at a joke. It has been 5 years that Vuyiswa has been with the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre and she is enjoying every moment of it. She first volunteered to help with the caring of the kids, where Ivy Nyovane only functioned as a Creche and After Care. Later when they developed into an Educare, she became one of the teachers. With further development she became the Principal and teacher for one of the Grade R classes. She describes her journey as the Principal, one of many aspects in the process of being a woman. She believes she has still a lot to learn when it comes to administration and day to day running of the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre. And her notebook comes quite handy in the process of being a principal, where documentation is the key to staying organise, with arrangements of the Centre. In her own life it has taught her to arrange and list her priorities, to have a place for everything in her life to revisit when needed. She cannot take all the credit for the operations of the Centre when she has such a wonderful team of teachers, along with the Founder of the Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre, the Care Taker and the Security and Maintenance, each playing their special and individual part. For she believe that they are growing because they are a team. SmilingOne salutes you Vuyiswa for the love and strength – sharing yourself with others – through being a resource and care! *check out our Espresso interview brought to you by Chevrolet – a GM Uteforce Project hand in hand with SmilingOne and Thorp Motorgroup on the amazing development of Ivy Nyovane Educare. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0swp4jp7_A OUR PROJECTS –COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
  • 16. OUR PROJECTS –COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CMD – Central Music Development by Franklin Esau Many may ask why I chose the name Central Music District. I was inspired when I listened to my heart (the centre of creating music) to aid others in finding the centre of their music and developing it. Central music District is a project of musical talent and developing it to understanding yourself musically. In the past three months I have connected deeply with the sounds of music, and those not privilege enough to find out what their talent and passion is worth to them and those who listen to them. As part of my Circle Of Change Activation I am meant to have a Caring project that gives back to the community. I discovered the gift I have by being on the platform of music and inviting others to be part of it. In the community of Elsies River I spread the word and soon two wonderful talents followed – Stanford and Latoya. We have had an amazing experience of walking together and decided to record a song that will capture our community, that we call ‘Chucks’. Soon after with welcoming applause from the community we found another young talent interested to explore her gift. And unlike Stanford and Latoya who are rappers, she is a song bird with an angelic voice that can smooth any message. We recorded a song together called ‘Peace’. Latoya: To be involved with Franklin in our music and talent is a dream for me. It made me realise that I can be a better person. At first I did not believe that my talent would be noticed. Now I believe that I can be the person I dream about, a rapper. Stanford: It is exciting to be with CMD working on my skills and it is very fruitful. I definitely enjoy the ride; I would like to get more involved as my work only allows me minimal time. Robyn: It nice to make something of my talent and I hope to go much further. I am just grateful for the opportunity. A large extend we want to urge all young folks to explore their talent, giving them an opportunity to find themselves and the light they shine within, creating a platform in communities like Elsies River. Right now, we are shooting two music videos and I hope you are going to love the music. OUR PROJECTS –COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEDEVELOPMENT
  • 17. SKILLS AND DEVELOPMENT Montessori We have been excited for so many months now looking forward to our graduation and it was lovely. Me and Ma Esther is so happy that we could pass as Montessori teachers and further equip in the process as Educators at Ivy Nyovane Educare Centre. Our workshop this month was creative with colourful sharing. It helped me understand relationships with new people I have met. There were many challenges on the road and for me it was mainly computer class but I managed to pull through. For Ma Esther it was a huge challenge to manage her time now that she is studying at Montessori, so she is grateful for her team of teachers at Ivy Nyovane who helped her managing her time. Now that we have seen the progress and learning in the Montessori classes we are setting new goals to further our education in uplifting ourselves to give more to Ivy Nyovane Educare. Thank you to SmilingOne for helping us achieving this goal. It made us better teachers to give better service to the community. ……………………………………… The Responsible Individual MOMENT OF SILENCE Challenges Symptoms of Challenges Mirror Wind Reactive Patterns The Survivor Pleaser Victim Balance Awareness Spectrum Trust Acceptance Allowance Affirmation Personal Balance Profile Understanding Identity Directions Values CHOICE the observer PURPOSE key roles Mission Vision BODY MIND SOUL learning Relationships ENVIRONMENT social responsibility SKILLS AND DEVELOPMENT
  • 18. SMILE FOR THE CAMERA – Capturing the Change Agents By Rox Dalton Last year, as a part of my Masters Degree in Documentary Arts at the University of Cape Town, I made a short film that led me into prisons. This year we were tasked with creating a much longer format documentary and due to the overwhelmingly positive response we got from the first film, I decided to expand on the short film and make a film that explored much more in detail the topic of the rehabilitation of an inmate. An aspect I didn’t explore in the short film was what happened to an inmate who according to the systems in place was classified as ‘successfully rehabilitated’ and was released back into society. This led me to the SmilingOne Foundation and two unique individuals who are SmilingOne Change Agents, Malcolm and Franklin. I met them together with the founder of the organization: Karina Anderson. Our first meeting took place in front of the fire of Karina’s lounge where we discussed everything from rehabilitation to filmmaking. I knew quite soon into our conversation that I would love to incorporate these two fascinating people into my documentary. By focusing on their lives and the programmes they are involved in as a part of their circles of change, a concept carried by SmilingOne Change Agents, I hope to explore the power of rehabilitation and confront the judgments we as a society often place on anyone with a criminal record. The journey so far has allowed me and my crew the chance to meet many more remarkable characters and has allowed us a glimpse into worlds and sub- cultures we would otherwise never get a chance to meet. Through Malcolm, we met Ocean View and the group he runs that fixes old beetles. Malcolm comes alive when he talks about cars and his passion clearly inspires the group he works worth it. We are all excited to capture the final spraying of the beetle they have been working hard on. Franklin introduced us to Elsies hip hop, ball room dancing Langa and a unique crèche in Nyanga, that is about to step out from the financial assistance Smiling One has provided and begin to generate their own income using the tools they have learned thus far. Our crew is looking forward to capturing the process as they build a small shop on the premises at the end of this week. Along with his musical ability, Franklin is always a source of inspiration and his positivity is contagious. He shares his life with a sense of honesty and authenticity that creates a space for those he interacts with to do the same. He also always has time to laugh and enjoy the company he is with which means he is a constant reminder that life should be a celebration. Malcolm is responsible for inspiring one of the key themes of the documentary which is “leaving your mark”. When he was explaining the spinning culture in Ocean View and how spinning or drifting can be a physical way of leaving your mark on a place, I realized that the change agents such as Malcolm and Franklin are also leaving their mark on the communities they engage with. Their presence uplifts and inspires positive change and creates spaces for those around them to learn from them and join them as they collect more puzzle pieces for the puzzle of hope and healing both appear to be building. My only hope is that this documentary can capture a small part of their journey and inspire others to leave their own marks in ways that can uplift those around them as well. Thank you Malcolm, Franklin & Karina for allowing us a chance to follow your journey over the last few months! Lots of love, Rox, Mike & Des

With great artists such as Lionel Bastos SAMA Award winner, it is an album not to miss. Check our website or facebook page for more information. Quantum Warrior – The Future Of The Mind In many of our human journeys we hold significant gratitude to our thoughts and the ability of the mind to endure or focus. With scientific discoveries and complex methodology we discover that this month’s book is one for complexity and innovative processing, made simpler to understand exactly the ability and power of the mind together with our human journey. The SmilingOne Foundation guides leaders through a simple form of attending to one-self, unlocking a potential that not only aid in self-discovery but also creating a self-identity. When I started reading the Quantum Warrior - The Future Of The Mind, written by John Kehoe – I saw an attendance to discover the locked potential of the mind. Using vast scientific jargons and highly religious terms I must say had me thinking that it is a book for the tertiary community who chooses the field of Cognitive Science. Surprisingly, is it explained in detail and conveyed in simpler form. Aiding in discovering more of one-self on a conscious understanding. In so I continue my attendance of self-discovery to understand more and open myself to learning about my journey. Let us welcome the teachings of life and share ourselves with each other.
