2014 was an extremely successful year for Tomorrow Trust.

We were able to evaluate and report back on all levels of the programmes to show the actual impact on both the academic and

psycho social aspects of our beneficiaries. It was the first year that we closed the gap of the full journey of the holistic support

mechanisms in place that now takes place from Grade 1 (K1) through to Grade 12, university and college, to our working Alumni.

Our Grade 10 class have now been with us since Grade 1 and are proving that with longitudinal and holistic support they can tap into

their potential to rise above their circumstances and deliver on the highest levels.

In 9 years we have achieved top results from all our beneficiaries who came to us with the lower pass marks ranging from 30-40% and

at times lower and are achieving astounding results due to the individual and holistic support we give at Tomorrow Trust. Our Grade

12 class from 2014 are proof of this - the average pass mark when they joined us in Grade 10 was 40%. Out of 72 students in Grade 12

we achieved 94 distinctions and over 82% university level pass marks.

In 9 years we now have 160 Alumni all working in top companies, doctors and nurses in the hospitals and teachers in our schools. They

are striking examples that your circumstances and background does not dictate who you are nor who you can become.

South Africa is in dire need of the great potential that lies within our children and youth and while our education system lies broken

and unsupportive of our children and youth we will lose out of developing leaders across the board and will carry on creating a system

that sets up our children and youth for failure. This is done through no fault of their own. We have seen and continue to witness the

tenacity, hunger, strength and commitment of all our beneficiaries to break their cycle of poverty and to lift themselves and their

families up to a level of self-reliability and independence.

No country can be successful without an educated youth. For as long as we face a systemic breakdown in our education system,

Tomorrow Trust remains essential in the services we provide. I take this opportunity to not only congratulate each of our students;

I would like to thank our donors and partners for recognizing, acknowledging and believing in our work and mission. You all make

Tomorrow Trust viable in how we run and what we do. You each take on changing the future of our children and the future of our

country. It is only through partnerships that we actually create sustainable impact. Together we create a different world for us all, alone

we only touch a few with little depth and impact. You all have chosen to join the team so that many more are touched through love,

support and a professional service.

As we enter our 10th year I look forward to watching many more of our beneficiaries attain their best results in all areas of their lives

and we, at Tomorrow Trust recommit to everyone involved - our exceptional Board of Trustees, the Tomorrow Trust team of full time

staff and teachers, partners, donors and students, that we will carry on reaching greater heights on all levels to be leaders in our field.

We will be brutally honest within Tomorrow Trust to raise our game constantly so that your world, our world, and the world of each of

our beneficiaries is positively impacted and changed for generations to come.

Tomorrow Trust has again made pleasing progress in all areas.

The heart of our work is of course helping our beneficiaries to develop their great talents. This continues to show impressive results in

terms of their academic achievement, and to yield moving stories in terms of their personal growth. The team has continued to refine

their record keeping, allowing us increasingly to measure impact.

Financially we are stronger than ever, much to the credit of Kim Feinberg. She has been steadily growing our network in the USA and

we are delighted to begin to see the fruits of this as our circle of friends in the US grows. Of course this represents far more than just

financial support, and we treasure the commitment of our supporters both in SA and abroad.

We enter our tenth year in 2015. Strategically the founding intention remains in force, obviously with some refinement and

adjustment, particularly in extending our support to beneficiaries over their whole primary and secondary schooling prior to

embarking on their tertiary studies. We have reviewed this direction over the past year or two, including considering extending

our services to other areas such as actual provision of school education, but have not so far seen the need for a substantial pivot.

Tomorrow Trust continues to serve what is a growing need, and to do so in a focused and effective way.

I would like to thank the board of trustees for continuing to provide helpful and expert leadership and support. During the year

under review, we received the resignations of Dorianne Weil and Sharise Weiner who have been stalwarts of Tomorrow Trust from the

beginning, and have now graciously agreed to become Patrons of the Tomorrow Trust. More recently, Rosie Motene who has been

a Trustee for over 6 years has also asked to be released. We treasure their contributions and thank them for many hours of generous

involvement. Although this falls outside the year on which we are reporting, we are also absolutely delighted that Karabo Leopeng,

one of our own beneficiaries from the early days, and now a professional economist with a leading bank, will be joining the Tomorrow

Trust staff in 2015. Therefore she has also stepped down from the board. We are delighted to welcome Philile Maphumulo to the board

and look forward to her contributions.

Tomorrow Trust has a great staff team, wonderful supporters, and a strong board of trustees. I would particularly like to recognise the

work of our deputy chair this year, Jack Phalane, whose legal advice has helped us on many, many occasions, and whose colleagueship

and wisdom I have appreciated over the years. I decided some time ago that I should stand down as chair but will however remain a

trustee. I was therefore delighted at the AGM to be able to hand over the happy responsibility of chairing the Trust to Jack and I wish

him every success as he provides leadership in the years ahead.

Tomorrow Trust’s journey has highlighted the need and importance of dealing with both the social, psychological and educational

needs of the beneficiaries (youth and children). This has resulted in Tomorrow Trust emphasising and adopting an individual

and holistic approach to the way in which the beneficiaries are and should be supported. Tomorrow Trust has ensured that the

beneficiaries receive inter alia, the psycho-social support required to cope with academic studies and arranging for the beneficiaries to

be mentored.

Although vital, it is not enough to just pay for tuition fees without taking care of the students’ needs holistically as those needs are

likely to influence the students’ academic performance and future.

The need to adopt an individual and holistic approach has become increasingly important in light of the recent xenophobic attacks in

our country, which were deplorable to say the least. Our beneficiaries need to be educated about humanity and be made to realise

that what defines us as human beings is not our race, our place of birth or geographic location. As human beings we have been

blessed with the ability to distinguish between what is right and wrong. The social, psychological and educational wellbeing of our

beneficiaries need to be reared and nurtured so as to bring about the good human nature that is innate.

The alumnus of Tomorrow Trust have been given the opportunity by the various partners of Tomorrow Trust to apply their trade,

be it by way of learnerships and/or full time employment. We are grateful to all our donors for making such a positive life changing

contribution to our children and youth. Your contribution is invaluable to the success and growth of Tomorrow Trust.

To all the partners of Tomorrow Trust, let us create the opportunity for our children to learn and apply their knowledge and in so doing,

South Africa’s tomorrow will be a different one.

Overview

IntroductionThe Tomorrow Trust supports orphaned and vulnerable children throughout their educational journey. Providing holistic education,

we focus on academics and life skills, thereby empowering them to reach their full potential as self-sustaining and proactive members

of society.

We are dedicated to finding the students who are the most vulnerable and marginalized, and who therefore have the greatest

potential to reverse the course of their futures. We evaluate them as whole individuals—with intricate and specialized needs that

cannot be met by a “one size fits all” mentality towards education. In this way, from the very beginning, we build a tailored program to

help each student where he or she needs it most. This is our holistic support method, which runs throughout all stages of learning, to

provide students with academic and psychosocial support.

It is important to note that each student enters at different stages of our student cycle—because educational intervention can never

be too late.

Why Tomorrow Trust – for every 100 South African students 51 make it to senior year

40 graduate high school

16 qualify for college

and only 2 will graduate college.

The Tomorrow Trust is changing these statistics. Learn how.

Tomorrow Trust students Tomorrow Trust students are influenced by their education from day one. The

Tomorrow Trust supports orphaned and vulnerable children to achieve their

educational goals, from their earliest years until they are program alumni. Providing

holistic support – psycho social and academic – to each student ensures South

African youth receive the education they deserve.

We believe in a HAND UP that empowers and emancipates South African youths from

poverty, rather than a HAND OUT that keeps them entrenched in charity. Giving them

the tools and skills they need to survive and thrive in the 21st century, our graduates

are empowered to reach their full potential as self-sustaining and proactive members

of society.

EducationIn South Africa, a student’s education spans over 13 years,

beginning at Grade R (kindergarten) and ending at Grade 12. For 40

years, schools suffered from a poorly managed education structure,

reinforced by an unequal apartheid education that segregated

races—and robbed many students of opportunities. In 1994, this

segregation law was overturned—but, South Africa still struggles

to produce high performing schools. The South African education

system is in crises with the stats being the worst that we have

experienced in previous years. The new pass grade is 35% and no

student is allowed to fail twice so they are then pushed up to the

next grade with no knowledge of the work needed.

The persistence of an inadequate education has long lasting effects

on South Africans and their communities. According to Brand

South Africa, illiteracy rates currently stand at 18% for adults over

the age of 15, leading to a high rate of unemployment among South Africans. This dilemma is compounded by low participation in

higher education, with only 16% of 18-24-year olds being accepted to universities.

Knowing that education and life skill development are the essential ingredient to sustainable developed and poverty reduction,

Tomorrow Trust is committed to altering the course of education in our country.

Economies & Families

Junior Holiday School Learner

Education is the most sustainable option to provide

professional opportunities, and to improve socio-economic

conditions. Once a Tomorrow Trust student graduates from

college, they are fully prepared for a career in their field of

study. Providing students with a fulfilling career strengthens

their communities and their economy. Graduates go on to

support their entire family, bringing parents, siblings, aunts, and

uncles out of poverty.

All Tomorrow Trust students are required to give back to

younger students and to their community. They learn how

their actions can improve their community and bring about a

stronger South Africa. As communities become more educated,

economies thrive, jobs increase, and poverty rates decline.

Tomorrow Trust is now in its 10th year. We are strong in our monitoring and evaluation practises.

We are committed to seeing what process and impact is being made from year to year. Please see

below a few stats that depict the work and the impact that we are doing.

Junior Holiday School Programme: Grade R (kindergarten) – Grade 7Future success in education—and life—depends on a strong foundation of skills development.

This is the focus in the primary grades, ensuring that students are prepared for the senior phase of

schooling. Our students focus on Mathematics, Literacy and English skills, which form the bedrock

for expanding knowledge as they grow. South African juniors in Government schools only start to

hear and learn English in Grade 4 which sets them back at least 2 years academically, often they

never catch up moving forward.

But, it isn’t simply about providing a classroom experience. We know that students require academic

support, yet we supplement this with nutritious meals, stationary and course materials. We also

provide transportation from townships to host schools. In this way, each student is in the best

possible position to take advantage of the learning opportunities provided.

Saturday and Holiday School: Grade 8 – Grade 12Having established a strong framework of knowledge, our students graduate from Grade 7 with

new confidence and skills. At this point, they advance to our Saturday and Holiday School program,

which focuses more closely on Mathematics, Biology, Science and English. Their existing knowledge

is deepened, and new subjects are introduced to round out their education and support the

development of well-rounded individuals. Again, we transport these learners to host schools to

guarantee access and safety, and their academic endeavors are supported with nutritious meals,

stationery and holistic support.

Due to their circumstances, these young people are not exposed to career guidance nor any

options as to how to move forward once they have completed their schooling. Tomorrow Trust

sees to all their individual needs, making sure that they have a focus on the correct post-secondary

studies that they should take up as well as which institution they should apply to.

The Holiday School Programme is in its 9th year. The Graph below depicts the increase in number of

learners over the years.

Senior Saturday and Holiday School Programme: (Grade 8-12)The findings from the ANA have shown that South African

Mathematical ability is on a very low level. According to

the Global Competitiveness (GC) report, South Africa was

ranked 133rd out of 142 countries for the quality of its

primary education. It is evident that in Grade 9 learners

are not equipped with the foundations of maths to

enable them to pass with a good mark.

The Tomorrow Trust Saturday and Holiday School Programme

have shown the quality and commitment to the academic

outcome of learner’s results. Tomorrow Trust believes in

accessing the potential in every child and ensuring they pass

Grade 12 with improved marks despite the various challenges

they face. This in turn develops a well-rounded competent

individual who can positively contribute to South Africa

economy.

A university entry is an achievement of 60% and above. This allows learners to enter into further university institutes.

2014 Grade 12 learners were the first group of learners to write

their National Senior Certificate on the new CAPS curriculum.

The Tomorrow Trust has obtained a 96% Grade 12 pass rate

compared to that of National pass rate of 75.8%. Even though

the pass rate is high it is not conducive to showing the quality

of the passes. Tomorrow Trust delivers on a high quality and

has proven to show the success in the quality of the pass.

We have achieved 82.43% University grade compared to the

Gauteng Department of Education university pass of 25%.

and attitude. The learners and students we work with generally start the programme with results in the 40% range, and we work with

the beneficiaries to improve their results.

Post Secondary Programme

Considering the poorly functioning state of education in South Africa, it is truly an incredible

moment to see our students graduate from Grade 12—and the pride that they rightfully feel is

overwhelming. At this stage, they are prepared to be part of our Post-Secondary program, which is

geared towards assisting students through college and university. We are committed to providing

support for these young adults throughout the year. Monthly workshops are arranged where life

skills, study skills, self-awareness and self-mastery issues are developed and taught. This furthers their

growth as they develop in to competent, proactive individuals. Upon graduation, students enter the

South African job market as skilled and reliable individuals, ready to further and sustain the growth of

our country.

We give both psycho social and academic support which encompasses all of the above making sure

that these young individuals are very ready for the world when they graduate.

Post-secondary students are required to give back at least 10 hours a year to the younger groups

within the Grade R – Grade 12 program at Tomorrow Trust. They then become motivators and role

models to the younger students and at the same time learn the wonder of being able to make a

positive impact on another’s life.

Post-Secondary DepartmentIn 2005, the Tomorrow Trust Post-Secondary department was assisting 12 students obtain tertiary

qualifications. Since then we have grown to supporting 142 students in 2014.

These students are studying diplomas and degrees across a variety of respectable institutions in

South Africa. The breakdown of university versus college enrolment in 2014 is as follows:

State of tertiary education in South AfricaThe Tomorrow Trust came about as a solution to the educational crisis we are faced with. For a country to be successful, and for the

citizens to be productive members of society, education of youth is imperative.

STATE OF NATIONAL HIGHER EDUCATION IN SA TOMORROW TRUST

46% of all students who started studying three- and

four-year degrees in 2005 at South Africa’s 22 universities,

excluding Unisa, had dropped out by 2010 - data

published by the Council on Higher Education1

Since 2005 the average yearly dropout rate of Tomorrow

Trust is 2.4%

55% of students who enter into higher education

institutions will not complete their degree2

Only 15% of those who enter into a tertiary qualification

will complete on time2

84.2% of Tomorrow Trust beneficiaries have proceeded to

the next year without adding time to their qualification

duration.

Tomorrow Trust spots potential in worthy South African youth, and allows these youth to access tertiary education where they

otherwise would not be able to. In addition, Tomorrow Trust provides holistic support, which creates an environment that nurtures

students and improves their chances of success.

In the effort to develop self-sufficient and well-rounded

individuals who will not only excel in their careers but form

part of a caring society, all Post-Secondary students are

required to give back 10 hours towards Tomorrow Trust

activities. These activities are mainly focused on assisting at

the Holiday School Programme through tutoring, coordinating,

giving motivation and have enabled our students to

demonstrate their soft skills.

It is admirable that 40% of our students gave back more than

the recommended 10 hours. The table below indicates the

number of hours volunteered by students during the period

February to October 2014.

The Tomorrow Trust is not just a bursary fund, compared

to many other organisations; we also focus on the Holistic

development of the individual.

Tomorrow Trust gives back

Words from our Beneficiaries:“Words cannot fully describe how grateful I am for what you

did for me... From you I have learnt to never live a day in my life

without love filled in my heart and at all time I should be ready

to love and be compassionate to others.”

– Karabo Sebusi, Education graduate (2014), University of

Johannesburg”

“I have been self-empowered when it comes to taking charge

of my life. Through the psychological help that is also being

offered by the trust, I have become a bold individual. A young

lady that can now stand up for what she believes in. The self-

confidence that I have since gained gives me the courage to

not be fearful of what the future holds, I know who I am and

I know what I want out of life… My success is not only for

myself but for my family and everyone else whose life I will

have an impact on.”

– Vanessa Mhlanga, 3rd year BSc Biological Sciences, University

of Pretoria

“What I took from TT is the gift of gratitude. I have learnt that

it makes a world’s difference to someone when you not only

tell them but also show them how grateful you are. It transmits

positive energy. I have also learnt to appreciate the challenges

that I face.”

– Penelope Lekgau, BCTA, University of Johannesburg

“I’ve learned not be ashamed of my past or where I come from,

I learned to be proud of the things I’ve been through and now

I’m able to share it with other people, because now I realize

that it is not about where you come from but where you going,

and I learned that I am not defined but the things I have but

what’s inside is what matters the most”

– Olga Mampane

Alumni Programme

Tomorrow Trust students never truly leave the Tomorrow Trust program, because we

become family through the close bonds developed in our learning environments.

What’s more, their opportunities to engage with Tomorrow Trust never end. Once they

graduate college, students are accepted into the alumni program that offers a platform

for graduates to participate in the future of the organization and to network amongst

themselves. This program serves a dual purpose. First, alumni are encouraged to give

back to fellow students in younger grades and contribute to the well-being of children

in similar circumstances. Second, our alumni program encourages peer support and

networking by like-minded young people who are able to share their stories of success.

This final piece of the puzzle encourages our graduates to be engaged, civic-minded

individuals who never stop giving back to their communities.

Alumni come to gatherings aimed at their needs addressing career support and

general life support.

In just 10 years, Tomorrow Trust has 161 graduates and alumni. Having gone through

the programmes and graduated in different fields of study, many are working in top

corporate companies in South Africa.

A proud partnership – Tomorrow Trust and LEAP

LEAP (Leadership Excellence & Accelerating Potential) is a non-profit foundation that annually organizes a youth leadership

programme held at UCLA. Each year, hundreds of students travel from across the globe to attend LEAP’s week-long program dedicated

to helping young adults uncover the “real-life” skills needed to achieve great success. Dr Bill Dorfman sponsors Tomorrow Trust

students each year to attend the LEAP program and present on their lives as inspiration to others. Marcus Chabane and Zintle Majeke

are students who received the opportunity to attend this year with our CEO, Ms Kim Normand-Feinberg. The program took place from

July 27th- August 2nd at the Campus of UCLA, Los Angeles, California.

Our students presented before 450 audiences which was a first for them. It is always an inspirational moment when students tell their

stories and tell them with confidence and pride. This year our students continued to inspire people.

LEAP

The LEAP programme is a phenomenal programme that allows for immense growth especially with the knowledge attained throughout the week. The programme has, without doubt, given me an advantageous head-start ahead of my contemporaries.The programme is extremely effective as it is presented in concentrated amount and the lessons are in depth. The lessons vary and thus allows for different people to learn in all their particular fields of interests.

I am truly appreciative and grateful for having had the opportunity to attend the programme, it has not only strengthened my skills but also re-enforced self-realisation in all aspects of my life. I really enjoyed your examples of how the information you teach within LEAP has helped to get to where you are as a Dentist in life. I recite your story to everyone that I ecstatically explain my experience of LEAP to. I have been applying the lessons I have learnt- for example , with the 100year lifestyle, I don’t eat burgers or drink fizzy sodas any longer, I feed myself with knowledge by having daily readings of a self-growth book every day.

I am truly grateful for the experience and I definitely owe The Tomorrow Trust a great deal for having given me the opportunity to attend your programme. I have created numerous relationships which many are still healthy and active today. I am part of an international mastermind group and I have created one of my own back here at home.

I have no excuse to not bare the fruits of the knowledge attained at the LEAP programme- I will do what I ought to do when I ought to do it, with no debate

Marcus Chabane

This was by far the most incredible and amazing experience ever had.

It changed my attitude towards life and reaching my goals and how to

get what I want for myself. Throughout the program I have been able

to identify who I am, who I want to be and how to get there using my

strengths to a great future.

When I arrived at Leap I really did not expect what I experienced, actually

I didn’t even know what to expect because everyone had been telling

me so much I felt like my expectation were raised too high that it cannot

all be true till I got there, I was just blown away by how amazing this

program is. People there are so great, positive and enthusiastic about

life and so determined to achieve great things, it was such an honour to

surround myself around them.

I always thought I had a plan but when I went to Leap I realised a plan

not written down is not a real plan but just a dream. I now have started

writing everything I want to achieve short, medium and long term and

this actually feels even more real than anything I have been doing. I now

feel so guided about where I want to go and be.

Going to the mentor workshop was my highlight of the program because

I met people in different professions that I was interested in because I was

undecided on my specific career until I sat with Mr. Gary Dorfman. He

was amazing and inspiring, especially knowing I was talking to someone

who is where I want to be in the near future. It motivated me even more

to pursue a career in investments. Many may say that was little time but

for me it was more than anyone could ask for.

What I learnt that I felt was most important to take away from Leap was

gratitude and appreciation. Writing and receiving the ‘I Appreciate’ notes

was just too beautiful to describe. I love how it makes you appreciate

people and uplifts you in every way you could imagine. I realised that

Leap is Tomorrow Trust in a week, and knowing there are people who

care about your future is so motivating and AWESOME.

Tomorrow Trust at the Cell C media launch

On the 14th April 2014, the Tomorrow

Trust Post-Secondary students sponsored

by Cell C attended the Media Launch of their Take a Girl Child

to Work Mentorship Programme. Miss SA, Rolene Strauss

and Deputy Minister for Women, Children and People with

Disabilities Hendrietta Ipeleng Bogopane-Zulu addressed the

group.

Tomorrow Trust beneficiary, Eunice Malapo , a 3rd year student

sponsored by Cell C doing a National Diploma in IT technical

Applications told her story. The audience was moved by this

confident young woman’s life journey and how she was able

to overcome her obstacles. The event was inspirational and

empowering. And we couldn’t have been more honoured to

be a part of it.

Donors involvement

Brait Foundation joins the Tomorrow Trust Junior Holiday School learners at the annual Christmas Party

On the 29th November 2014, the Tomorrow Trust

hosted the annual Christmas Party for the Junior

Holiday School Programme. The Christmas

party celebrates the achievements of the year as well as

the celebration of Christmas and giving back. This year the

Christmas party included baking of Christmas treats and crafts

like making a reindeers, Christmas baskets, snow men and

building Santa Claus. The Brait Foundation provided each of

their sponsored beneficiary with a hamper filled with goodies.

The beautiful boxes had toys, stationery and a clothing item

that the learners were very excited to receive. Brait Foundation

staff member were actively involved in assisting the learners

with their treats and crafts contributing to the season of giving

back.

We would like to thank Brait Foundation and the team for

spending the day with us.

Levis SA staff give back

Levis has worked with a group of Grade 9

for the duration of the year, engaging with

them on various topics and life lessons. On

Thursday, 4th December 2014, Levis took out the group of

Grade 9 learners as part of the company’s community day.

For their Community Day, the learners went to Art Jamming

in Melrose Arch. The aim of the Community day was to

activate creativity and allow learners to experience with their

imaginations. Everyone had their paint brushes and chose

paint colours they wanted to use for their painting. The theme

was “what do I want life around me to look like”. Learners

were allowed to express themselves using these brushes and

beautiful coloured paints.

We would like to thank Levis for partnering with Tomorrow

Trust and providing experiential learning to the Grade 9

learners.

Makro has been one of Tomorrow

Trust longest standing partners. On the

12th December 2014, Makro held a Community day that

brought together all walks of lives from their employees to

the Tomorrow Trust beneficiaries. The Makro Community day

was held on the development site for their new Makro store

building in Fourways. A group of Junior Holiday School learners

attended the day and each received free vouchers for various

meals. Many learners baked with Snowflake, had their faces

painted, danced, camel rides, bull rides and other enjoyable

activities throughout the day. This was a great platform for all

walks of live to come together and have fun.

Thank you Makro for this opportunity, we look forward to the

next Community day.

The Tomorrow Trust partnered with IQ Business in 2013,

forming a partnership that would provide Holiday School

going Grade 10 learners with the opportunity to be exposed to

life-skills workshops and a year-end camp. IQ Business worked

closely with the learners providing workshops around values

that are relevant to the learners such as compassion, respect,

integrity, love and education. Each child identified with the

values and practiced these values in everyday life.

The IQ team then conducted ‘speed-dating’ to get to know

each child personally. The learners enjoyed the collaboration

and the workshop strengthened their knowledge and belief in

values.

The “My Life” camp was held at Thabo Morula Adventure Camp

from the 6th December to the 8th December 2014. The Theme

of the camp was Survivor. The aim was to incorporate the

various values learnt into fun activities.

The camp challenged each individual by incorporating the

following – yoga and aerobic classes; experiencing first hand

cheetah, game drives; games; abseiling and sand models; team

development through various outdoor obsticle courses and

zamba dancing.

We would like to thank IQ Business as well as Adam Craker and

his team for being actively involved in the development of our

Tomorrow Trust learners.

TCP has a proud heritage in South Africa and

has been helping South Africans improve

hygiene since the early 1900’s. OMEGALabs are

extremely proud to re-launch this old favourite to the South

African public and are excited to partner with the Tomorrow

Trust on their launch. The Tomorrow Trust is a truly inspiring

organisation making an immense difference with the youth

of today. OMEGALabs’ intention is to form a long-term

partnership with the Tomorrow Trust, leveraging the TCP

brand to continue to educate the youth of South Africa on

the importance of hygiene and cleanliness.TCP believes in the

youth of South Africa.

For the launch of this heritage brand, TCP is supporting the

Tomorrow Trust. The launch day’s which took place on the 7th

of October 2014 and the 9th of October 2014 were designed

to be a hands on event for members of the media and press to

actively work with the children of the Trust in “workshopping”

and guiding the grade seven learners through the importance

of disinfecting both in the home and personally for hygiene.

The launch was not only educational but fun as well. Those

that attended expressed how amazing it was interacting with

the children and helping them with their activities of the day.

It truly was a heart warming day and we appreciate everyone’s

attendance.

Tomorrow Trust started a year with another

great opportunity. In just a short space since

2014 began, we have had an opportunity to

be part of the project called 100 Good Deeds. This project is

about a braclet that is both a call to do good deeds and a strategy to

empower women.

Tomorrow Trust met with the incredible woman who came up with

this idea, Mary Fisher. She has a humbling story behind this idea. As

Tomorrow Trust we pride ourselves in helping those in need and

being involved with this project in one of other ways we continue to

help others and to do good.

Trustees’ Responsibilities and Approval

The trustees are required to maintain adequate accounting records and are responsible for the content and integrity of the financial statements and related financial information included in this report. It is their responsibility to ensure that the financial statements fairly present the state of affairs of the trust as at the end of the financial year and the results of its operations and cash flows for the period then ended, in conformity with the accounting policies of the Trust. The external auditors are engaged to express an independent opinion on the financial statements.

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting policies of the Trust and are based upon appropriate accounting policies consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates.

The trustees acknowledge that they are ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established by the trust and place considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment. To enable the trustees to meet these responsibilities, the trustees set standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk. These controls are monitored throughout the trust and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring the trust’s business is conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above reproach. The focus of risk management in the trust is on identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk across the trust. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the trust endeavours to minimise it by ensuring that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems and ethical behaviour are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints.

The trustees are of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management, that the system of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss.

The trustees have reviewed the trust’s cash flow forecast for the year to 31 December 2015 and, in light of this review and the current financial position, they are satisfied that the trust has or has access to adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

The external auditors are responsible for independently auditing and reporting on the trust’s financial statements.

The financial statements have been examined by the trust’s external auditors and their report is presented on page 43. The financial statements and additional schedules set out on pages 42 to 57, which have been prepared on the going concern basis, were approved by the trustees on 30 March 2015 and were signed on its behalf by:

Independent Auditor’s Report to the trustees of The Tomorrow Trust

We have audited the financial statements of The Tomorrow Trust set out on pages 8 to 19, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2014, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Trustees’ Responsibility for the Financial StatementsThe trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the basis of accounting described in the notes to the financial statements, for determining that the basis of preparation is acceptable in the circumstances and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s ResponsibilityOur responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

OpinionIn our opinion, the financial statements of The Tomorrow Trust for the year ended 31 December 2014 are prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of accounting described in the notes to the financial statements.

Basis of AccountingWithout modifying our opinion, we draw attention to the notes of the financial statements, which describes the basis of accounting. The financial statements are prepared to provide financial information to the trustees. As a result, the financial statements may not be suitable for another purpose.

Other mattersThe supplementary information set out on pages 56 to 57 does not form part of the financial statements and is presented as additional information. We have not audited this information and accordingly we do not express an opinion thereon.

1. Presentation of Financial Statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Accounting Policies of the Trust. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the measurement of financial instruments at fair value. They are presented in South African Rands.

These accounting policies are consistent with the previous period.

1.1 Significant judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts represented in the financial statements and related disclosures. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant.

Actual results in the future could differ from these estimates which may be material to the financial statements.

Consolidation

No consolidation is done as the subsidiary, Malviprox Proprietary Limited, is dormant as at 31 December 2014.

No significant estimates and judgements

No significant estimates and judgements with significant estimation uncertainty have been applied in the preparation of these financial statements.

1.2 Investment in subsidiary

In the trust’s separate financial statements, investment in subsidiary are carried at cost.

The cost of an investment in a subsidiary is the aggregate of: • the fair value, at date of exchange, of assets given or liabilities incurred or assumed and • any cost directly attributable to the purchase of the subsidiary.

1.3 Financial instruments

When a financial asset or financial liability is recognised initially, it is measured at the transaction price (including transaction costs) unless the arrangement constitutes, in effect, a financing transaction.

Financial instruments at amortised cost Debt instruments, are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments which are

classified as current assets or current liabilities are measured at the undiscounted amount of the cash expected to be received or paid, unless the arrangement effectively constitutes a financing transaction.

At the end of each reporting date, the carrying amounts of assets held in this category are reviewed to determine whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. If so, an impairment loss is recognised.

Trade receivables Trade receivables are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the trust will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

51

1.3 Financial instruments (continued)

Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and other short-term highly liquid investments with original

maturities of three months or less. Bank overdrafts are shown as a current liability on the statement of financial position.

Loans from related parties These include loans to and from holding entities, fellow subsidiaries, subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates and are recognised

initially at fair value plus direct transaction costs. Loans from group entities are classified as financial liabilities measured at amortised cost.

Trade payables Trade payables are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective

interest method.

Trade payables are obligations on the basis of normal credit terms and do not bear interest.

1.4 Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.

1.5 Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are tangible items that: • are held for use in the production or supply of goods or services, for administrative purposes; and • are expected to be used during more than one period.

Cost includes all costs incurred to bring the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Costs include expenditure incurred initially to acquire or construct an item of property, plant and equipment and costs incurred subsequently to add to, replace part of, or service it. If a replacement cost is recognised in the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment, the carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the period in which they are incurred.

Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation on assets is provided using the straight-line method to write down the cost, less estimated residual value over the useful life of the property, plant and equipment, which is as follows:

Item Average useful life Office equipment 6 years Computer equipment 3 years

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if its carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

The residual value, depreciation method and useful life of each asset are reviewed and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate, if there are indicators present that there has been a significant change since the last reporting date.

52

1.5 Property, plant and equipment (continued)

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they occur.

1.6 Leases

A lease is classified as a finance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership to the lessee. A lease is classified as an operating lease if it does not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership.

Operating leases – lessee Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term except in cases where another

systematic basis is representative of the time pattern of the benefit from the leased liability, even if the receipt of payments is not on that basis, or where the payments are structured to increase in line with expected general inflation.

1.7 Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and the sales price less costs to complete and sell, on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis.

The cost of books comprises the cost of purchasing the books. At each reporting date, inventories are assessed for impairment. If inventory is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

1.8 Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits The cost of short-term employee benefits, (those payable within 12 months after the service is rendered, such as paid vacation

leave and sick leave, bonuses, and non-monetary benefits such as medical care), are recognised in the period in which the service is rendered and are not discounted.

The expected cost of compensated absences is recognised as an expense as the employees render services that increase their entitlement or, in the case of non-accumulating absences, when the absence occurs.

The expected cost of profit sharing and bonus payments is recognised as an expense when there is a legal or constructive obligation to make such payments as a result of past performance.

1.9 Revenue Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and comprises donations and book and good

deeds bracelet sales.

Interest is recognised, in surplus or deficit, using the effective interest rate method.

Revenue for general donations are recognised when cash is received. If donations are made for a specific school year and the donor signed the contract or accepted the invoice, the revenue is accrued for in the specific school year.

Revenue from book sales is recognised when the risk and rewards of the inventory is transferred to customers.

Donations in kind are not accounted for as income in profit or loss.

1.10 Cost of sales When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the

related revenue is recognised. The amount of any write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.

1.11 Trust capital and equity An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities.

Trust capital is classified as equity.

1.12 Deferred revenue Deferred revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and comprises of donations received in

advance.

Deferred revenue is recognised when cash is received that is specifically mandated to be spent on projects in the future.
