Salt & Light Vision
A place where you belong
We envision a restored and vibrant rainbow nation.
We dream of a future where children, youth, and school dropouts—once feeling hopeless—discover purpose through mastering valuable skills, finding or creating meaningful work, and stepping into their God-given potential.
We long to see every child and young person uncover their unique calling and giftedness, growing into the fullness of who they were created to be.
At Salt and Light, we believe that by restoring hearts, renewing minds, and equipping hands, we will see communities transformed—one life, one family at a time.
"Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all."
Aristotle
