Donating to Save the Children South Africa

Every child deserves a healthy start, a safe place to grow, and the chance to learn. Yet across South Africa, too many children are denied these opportunities, their futures stolen before they begin.

You have the power to change this. Your support can ensure that children not only survive, but thrive, through accessing quality education, better health and nutrition, protection from violence, and the chance to grow up in communities where equality and dignity are possible.

When you give, you are not just donating, you are investing in childhood, in hope, and in the future we all share. You become part of a movement that refuses to accept a world where children are left behind.

How is my donation changing lives?

Because of you, children are surviving, learning, and thriving. Your support is opening classrooms, improving health and nutrition, protecting children from violence, and creating communities where dignity and equality are possible. Every brighter future begins with your generosity.

Check out our 2024 integrated annual report to learn more about how together, we changed lives for children in South Africa.
 

How is my donation used to make the greatest impact?

Your generosity strengthens the foundation that makes our mission possible. Every donation helps us build the systems, staff, and resources needed to protect children’s rights and ensure our work is effective, accountable, and sustainable.

A portion of unrestricted donations is reinvested in initiatives that grow long term public support, such as donor engagement, systems, and campaigns. The rest is used to reinforce our organisational capacity, covering essential operational and support costs including finance, compliance, governance, and monitoring. These investments ensure we can respond quickly to changing circumstances and deliver lasting impact for children across South Africa.

You can find more information about our finances in our 2024 Integrated Annual Report.

Why are monthly donations so important?

Your monthly gift is more than charity, it is the power to transform childhoods. With your ongoing support, children in South Africa are protected, educated, and given the chance to thrive, not just today, but for generations to come.

Monthly giving fuels our ambition to reach every child, everywhere. It ensures we can respond immediately when crises strike, while also building long‑term solutions that break cycles of poverty, violence, and inequality. Your commitment provides the stability we need to plan boldly and act decisively for lasting change, until every child can be a child.

Every contribution made through our website is secure, and all donations are tax deductible.

Act now. Your monthly commitment is the power that safeguards every child's right to protection, education, and health, and drives the future we are determined to build.

Protection of your presonal information

Save the Children South Africa is committed to safeguarding the quality and integrity of your personal information. We never rent, exchange, or sell the email addresses or personal details of our supporters to any third party.

For online donations, we use PayFast as our trusted and secure payment gateway, ensuring your information is protected throughout the transfer process.

Thank you for standing with us to keep children safe, and for respecting our child safety policy as part of this shared commitment.
