johannesburg, south africa tokyo, japan new york, usa 2 / 2 Goldman Sachs continued its relationship this year with the Mveledzandivho Primary School, a 12-classroom school in the township of Soweto, accommodating 700 students aged 5-14. Goldman Sachs volunteers renovated the school's cafeteria, replanted five gardens, installed irrigation systems, laid a 30-meter path and hosted a party for the students. Since 2000, our efforts have also included revamping other school facilities and hosting school-wide feasts and educational events. Volunteers from Goldman Sachs Tokyo provided mentorship and support to women from Saya Saya, a nonprofit organization that aids survivors of domestic violence. The day-long professional skills workshop enabled participants to build the basic knowledge, resources and confidence essential for them to achieve financial independence. This program continued a series of initiatives to assist low-income individuals seeking professional jobs, including the Dress for Success suit drives in our New York and London offices. Since 2001, Goldman Sachs New York has worked with Mentoring USA (MUSA), a nonprofit organization that provides structured, one-to-one mentoring in New York City to particularly “at risk” populations. Our volunteers mentor children in MUSA's foster care initiative, providing children and teenagers in foster care with a positive and supportive human connection that is too often missing from their lives. 2 / 2 © Copyright 2007, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
