              Over the years, the DDF has established a number of training programs and initiatives with the overall
            
            
              objective of addressing the existing need to equip young adults with both life and educational skills.
            
            
              For the past two years, Dell has enjoyed a successful relationship with the University of Venda through our
            
            
              Dell Bursary Program, which was joined in 2012 by five more students. Dell does not only provide funding for
            
            
              these undergraduates; we also provide them with their own Dell laptop, campus residential fees, a monthly
