Our mission is grounded in our altruistic-centred philosophy - addressing the massive youth unemployment scourge in the Helderberg while helping to build stronger relationships between the generations and in turn fostering a renewed and stronger sense of community amongst our fellow townspeople.
Many young adults possess valuable technical skills but lack the opportunities to apply them. South Africa has a high overall unemployment rate, but young people (ages 15-34) are disproportionately affected, with unemployment rates reaching 55%. The combination of high unemployment and slow economic growth means that young people often face limited opportunities for career advancement and upward mobility. This creates a vast talent pool of young individuals willing to join Techwyzeup and make a success of our business and their lives.
Our initiative brings these young, unemployed, tech savvy individuals and connects them with people and small businesses in need of patient and compasionate technical assistance and in turn, our clients receive high quality technical support – increasing their efficiency and productivity.
Our pricing model works by giving 50% of the charged hourly rate directly to the tutor – inspiring him/her to success while providing a financial platform to grow and triumph in life.

"Mike was very helpful in resolving my computer issues. Nothing was too small or too difficult for his attention."

"I have just had Mike from Techwyzeup over to do a few things on my computer and would like to recommend him.
He is patient, understanding of IT anxieties in older people, and was able to do all I needed in a calm and reassuring way."
Somerset West
"Although Mike is highly skilled, he took time and with the aid of little rough sketches on paper, he consolidated what he was doing on the screen. His simple instructions have brought my brain in to gear again. He cleaned up my computer, while showing me how to do this myself, and so much else."
