I’ve been working at Avocado Vision for almost two years now and it’s such a nice space.
This past January my husband Eric had an acident, someone drove into his car. I was so stressed about it but the Avos were so kind, giving me advice and helping me through it. They helped me out of a stressful situation I’d been struggling with.
I’ve learnt so many new skills here. At the moment I do training support, and I manage the budgets and purchasing for the food and stationery.
I’m so proud of the work that I’m doing and now I’ve just received a Learnership too, I’m so excited! My dreams are coming true! One of my strengths is ‘Learner’ so I can’t wait to get started and open up a whole new world for myself!
I’m lucky to work in a space like Avo.
Purpose
Building and delivering training solutions that empower people with skills and insight to make better choices and live bigger lives. Being brave enough to take on the challenges at a scale that makes a significant impact in SA and beyond

Welcome, Evelyn!
I told you when I met you that you were a brave woman! Congratulations for taking this opportunity in both hands and working your hardest to make it work!
You are working towards making a better life for your family. And I know for sure that you are someone who will do whatever it takes to give your child a better life.
I’m really enjoying watching your confidence grow and your smile widen. Keep going, strong woman: I am already proud of you!
Fellow ‘Newby’…
Well Evelyn - I would have never known that you too were so new to Avo if someone hadn’t mentioned it to me. You should be so proud of being a cliffjumper (this is a name I give people who push themselves far out of their comfort zones)- it takes a lot of personal courage.
When I see the way you work - with such tenacity and so open to feedback, I know that you will do whatever you put your mind too.
Look out world, here Evelyn comes!
Hey Evelyn
Well done…
I wonder, have you gotten your pants yet ??? It really is lovely having you onboard. It has been just over two weeks now and you have slotted into the team beautifully. Well done on deciding to change your life, know that your son and your husband will be very proud of you… I know I am !
Lots of love E
Thank you Avo. I will try to work hard. I want to make my dreams come true. I am going to make it because of you. Now I am starting to see the light at the end of tunnel.
Evelyn, it wasn’t avo that made you see that anything is possible, that you have within you and it SHINES out of you. I love working with you!!!!.
Evely, it’s great to have you here with us, thanks for working so hard with me on all the video material.
Hi Evelyn
You have been absolutely amazing from the moment you arrived! Thanks for bringing such warmth and positive energy into our avo space! Avo is a place where you can grow to become the best you can be. Welcome to the family!
