Not Just a Job: The Repair Shop Healing South Africa’s Fathers

This Father’s Day, we’re shifting the focus from gifts to growth — from “fixing things” to fixing lives. Taking Care of Business (TCB), a nonprofit helping unemployed South Africans become self-employed, is doing more than creating jobs — it’s rebuilding men, especially fathers, through their Repair Programme.

Today we’re joined by Alan Warden, Enterprise Development Manager at TCB, to explore why healing, dignity and emotional support are essential ingredients in real economic empowerment — and how a simple cup of tea might just be the start of a whole new brotherhood.
