Realizing the high rise of youth involvement in drugs, crime and other illegal dealings  in South Africa, Stand-out Foundation was established in Empangeni, South Africa in 2020 with the simple task of providing assistance to the youth who are in need – especially the physically and mentally challenged, impoverished and abused youth across all communities in South Africa.

Youth that grows up in the rural communities sometimes mostly feel like they are not meant to dream, because of the environment they found themselves in. Stand-out foundation as a non-profit organization is helping to fill in these gaps of the young people who grew up without a positive role model, Teaching the youth that it okay to dream and also fly in order to reach your dreams, helping underserved young people to develop life skills and forge trajectory for their career. Stand-out uses volunteer mobilization approach to providing mentorship, educational supports, practical leadership training for secondary school students in underserved communities.
