About

TABC - Teach A Boy Child, born from the vision of Siyabonga Assurance Mokoena, known affectionately as Siya, is not just an organization but a heart-driven movement. Siya, a proud product of the vibrant coal mining town of Emalahleni/Witbank in Mpumalanga, carries within him the tales of his roots.

As the eldest of three siblings, Siya's journey through life began at Carissa Primary School, followed by a transformative chapter at Hoërskool Generaal Hertzog. At the tender age of 20, Siya's life story already boasts an impressive list of accomplishments, all dedicated to his community's betterment.

​

Siya is currently pursuing an Advanced Radio Qualification at the esteemed University of the Witwatersrand - Wits Radio Academy. Simultaneously, he delves into the world of business through courses with GNBR Solutions. But Siya's pursuits extend far beyond academics and business. His calling, his passion, lies in changing lives.

​

TABC was born out of Siya's unwavering mission: to extend a helping hand to the young boys in his community, those who may be grappling with challenges he intimately understands. He envisions a world where these boys, like himself, can rise above adversities and thrive. Siya's vision for TABC goes beyond mentorship; it's about creating a movement that raises awareness of the social issues that impact us all, such as gender-based violence (GBV). It's about empowering young boys to be the change they wish to see.

​

Siya's journey, one that has taken him from modeling runways to pageant stages, ignited a burning desire to start this initiative. He recognized that young boys often find themselves caught in the cycle of crime and violence. TABC is the answer to that cycle—a platform where young boys can freely express themselves and work together to dismantle the very issues that threaten their futures.

In Siya's hands, TABC isn't just an organization; it's a beacon of hope, a testament to the transformative power of one individual's dedication to uplifting their community. Join us on this heartfelt journey as we rewrite the narratives of young boys and create a brighter, more promising future for all. Together, we are the change-makers, the dreamers, and the builders of a better world.
