Staff
Any education institution’s capacity to deliver on its goals is to a largest extent determined by the quality and numbers of people working to deliver on its mission and goals. We at PAY take pride in the incredible dedication of our staff to the cause of young people and many hours of hard work they put in making sure that no PAY child is left behind.
Volunteers
Since the programme’s inception in 2003, PAY has greatly relied on the work, wisdom and dedication of volunteers in its quest to better the lives of young people in Namibia. Over the course of 13 years, countless volunteers went through the PAY programme (according to some counts, well over 500) and assisted us in delivering our core Programme Objectives.
