"...SCO home-brewed ethical leaders... currently serving as national presidents. These are President Cyril Matamela Ramaphosa (South Africa) and President Lazarus McCarthy Chakwera (Malawi)"

If you are a boy of 15 or 16 years and you neither smoke nor drink alcohol, you are regarded as abnormal by your peers. You become a laughing stock. That is where the [SCO] needs to come in at this early stage (in schools) and affirm the positive moral values.

Who Are We

The Students’ Christian Organisation (SCO) exists across South Africa in schools, universities and amongst graduates as associate fellowship groups. The organisation was founded in 1896 as the Students’ Christian Association (SCA) through missionary work in Stellenbosch.

Today the organisation stands as a post-Apartheid merger of two breakaway movements, the Students’ Christian Association (SCA) and Students’ Christian Movement (SCM). Watch this video on the 1997 SCA & SCM Merger Conference:
