BE at UPs 2013 CSI initiative focused on identified Are-Itireleng Trusts Centre for the blind. Are-Itireleng is a non-profit organisation formed to address the plight of blind and disabled people by developing their skill and making them self-sufficient. Its main purpose is to cater for the needs of blind people through skills development, rehabilitation and job creation projects.
The Itireleng Workshop faced challenges that prevented the workshop from operating as a profitable business that can also sell its goods to related markets. BE at UP saw the need to intervene offering entrepreneurial consultation services through specialist expertise for entrepreneurial couching and business management skills.
