Ikusasa Student Financial Aid Programme seeks to secure the future of South African Youth by providing needs-based assistance to students from poor and working classes. This programme will enable students to acquire a broad set of knowledge, skills and character traits that will significantly improve their meaningful participation in the growth of the country, including the economy, human development, leadership, ethical behaviour and broad citizenship.

AVI currently supports 13 students in various fields namely engineering over their 4 year degree. The support includes meals, accommodation, transport, books and stipends. Additional phyco-social support is provided to students in the programme including academic support, managed social support, life skills training, mentoring and medical support.   The intention is to advance equal opportunity and equitable income distribution for all South Africans.
