ORT Jet offers an incredible mentorship program. I have been fortunate to have been introduced to business coaches and industry leaders in the design and property worlds, who freely give of their time, expertise, and experience. When the waters seem murky, they offer guidance, sometimes just a listening ear or even accountability. I feel very privileged to have ORT Jet as a resource and to belong to such a generous organization.

I have been involved with ORT Jet for many years and during this period have witnessed the remarkable growth of the organisation as well as the positive impact it has made on our Cape Town Jewish community.
The ORT Jet panel meetings are conducted in a confidential and safe space allowing the entrepreneur to unpack his / her problems without feeling threatened and in a relaxed environment.
I extend my sincerest compliments to Lisa and team for their dedication and committed service coupled with an attention to the micro details of each person is truly amazing.
