Who Are We(W.A.W) is a youth arts & recreational centre that exists to produce stars out of individuals from various talents of arts and sports to contribute to the development of a wholesome youth. The name W.A.W (Who Are We) was inspired by this question: “Who Are We as young people, Are we who society says we are, are we defined by society’s assumptions about who we are or are we who we are?” W
e believe we possess greatness in us;"What you see, is not all that is in me.”
Motto : (Derived from Proverbs 23:7)“As he thinks in his heart so is he”, in other words the things we think about, focus on and surround ourselves with, will shape the people we become...Thus “You become what you think.”
AIM: To grow W.A.W into other parts of the nation. What does W.A.W do? W.A.W inspires, embraces and entertains all art forms by providing a resourceful environment with various activities, programmes and events for young people aged between 13-24 years. Sourcing opportunities for exceptional artists or athletes e.g. referring them to specialist agencies thus creating job opportunities for them and at the same time marketing them and the nation.
