Thousands of South Africans are looking to lend a helping hand during this time so we have listed all the organisations we know of working to make a change.
South Africa (16 July 2021) – Throughout all the heartache of South Africa’s recent struggles, we have had people reaching out to offer help and wanting to know where they can do so. As usual, we love helping direct people to important causes so we have compiled a working list of organisations to support.
If you are looking for ways to volunteer your time or funds, you can reach out to any of the organisations listed below. Please note, this is a working list and we will add to it as submissions come in. If you are looking for a charity list that covers all sectors of SA, you can find our 2020 list here.
To be added to this list, please email us the following: The organisation’s name, location and website or social media links. Please also provide a brief description of what the organisation is doing to aid their community and how people can get involved. You can email us here.
