A year later Mandla Mazibuko and Tumi Mohube joined Cheri Yase Kasi as partner as part of the strategy to grow the company. The 3 friends had worked together in agencies before, and they had their own dreams that they didn’t know how to realise individually. They then took the skills that all three of them had to become what is now this exciting, larger agency.
For Sunshine, Mandla, and Tumi it’s important to show that kid in the township that you don’t have to be an A+ student only to make it work. They want to show the young black youth that there are other work opportunities out there that fall outside the traditional professions that they might be really strong in. They work with various church groups in townships, take in paid interns, and kids go to them for guidance, inspiration and mentorship. In the process of starting a business they are becoming entrepreneurs; and their dream is to change the world for every black child.
