Hunger No More: How Save the Children South Africa is Rewriting the Future for Limpopo's Youngest Learners
At Save the Children South Africa (SCSA), we are committed to creating a world where every child has the chance to thrive. In 2022, we embarked on a powerful partnership with Clarins to address the pressing issue of food insecurity in Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres. Implemented across multiple provinces, including Mpumalanga, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, and Gauteng, our partnership is bringing vital support to vulnerable children across these regions. Child hunger affects millions of children in South Africa, with far-reaching consequences for their health, education, and future prospects.
The Power of Purpose: Women Leading African Philanthropy
By Gugu Xaba – African women have long been at the forefront of philanthropy in their communities, exemplifying “love in action” through courage, cultural integrity, and care. At a recent Adɔyɛ Dialogue hosted by Wits University’s Centre for African Philanthropy and Social Investment, we celebrated iconic women leaders – like Dr. Barbara Masekela and Ms. Sibongile Mkhabela – whose legacies light the way. Their example inspires an Adɔyɛ (an Akan word meaning “love in action”) ethos that views philanthropy as an expression of care, solidarity, and service. It was a great honour to join them in conversation and reflect on how African women’s purpose-driven leadership is transforming society.
