Founded in 2012 from a home in Rustenburg.
Tsholetsa began at the back of founder Richard Kgosietsile Tlhogwe's home. He saw that people with disabilities were not getting enough support and were left out of social and economic life. Today the centre combines advocacy, education and practical skills training to change that.
