Instead of watching the cycle continue, he gathered friends, started conversations, and created a safe weekly forum for youth in the community.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"origin-story\">\n <p>Attendance grew over time, and the weekly meetings quickly outgrew Prince\u2019s home. That momentum led him to approach schools around Saulsville for space, and Edward Phathudi Comprehensive School opened its classrooms so the work could continue.<\/p>\n <p>As the organisation grew, the focus became clearer: create structured interventions that could shift behaviour, rebuild discipline, and give young people a real path away from destructive habits. That direction would eventually shape Discipline Camp into the organisation’s central programme.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"timeline-section\">\n <div class=\"wrap\">\n <div class=\"section-head\">\n <div>\n <div class=\"eyebrow light\">Key Milestones<\/div>\n <h2 class=\"section-title light\">A Timeline Of Growth<\/h2>\n <div class=\"divider\"><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <p class=\"section-text light\">Rising Stars Generation has grown through community trust, formal recognition, and a disciplined intervention model that now centres on one flagship programme: Discipline Camp.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"timeline-grid\">\n <div class=\"timeline-card\">\n <div class=\"timeline-year\">2018<\/div>\n <h3>Forums Begin<\/h3>\n <p>Prince Motlou starts gathering young people and friends for weekly youth forums at his home to address the real issues affecting the youth in the community.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"timeline-card\">\n <div class=\"timeline-year\">2019<\/div>\n <h3>Formal Establishment<\/h3>\n <p>The movement is formally established in February 2019.

Instead of watching the cycle continue, he gathered friends, started conversations, and created a safe weekly forum for youth in the community.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"origin-story\">\n <p>Attendance grew over time, and the weekly meetings quickly outgrew Prince\u2019s home. That momentum led him to approach schools around Saulsville for space, and Edward Phathudi Comprehensive School opened its classrooms so the work could continue.<\/p>\n <p>As the organisation grew, the focus became clearer: create structured interventions that could shift behaviour, rebuild discipline, and give young people a real path away from destructive habits. That direction would eventually shape Discipline Camp into the organisation’s central programme.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"timeline-section\">\n <div class=\"wrap\">\n <div class=\"section-head\">\n <div>\n <div class=\"eyebrow light\">Key Milestones<\/div>\n <h2 class=\"section-title light\">A Timeline Of Growth<\/h2>\n <div class=\"divider\"><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <p class=\"section-text light\">Rising Stars Generation has grown through community trust, formal recognition, and a disciplined intervention model that now centres on one flagship programme: Discipline Camp.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <div class=\"timeline-grid\">\n <div class=\"timeline-card\">\n <div class=\"timeline-year\">2018<\/div>\n <h3>Forums Begin<\/h3>\n <p>Prince Motlou starts gathering young people and friends for weekly youth forums at his home to address the real issues affecting the youth in the community.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"timeline-card\">\n <div class=\"timeline-year\">2019<\/div>\n <h3>Formal Establishment<\/h3>\n <p>The movement is formally established in February 2019.
