Empowered Women, Thriving Communities

Meet two inspiring entrepreneurs supported by the Grootbos Foundation!

Zaliswa is a determined go-getter who’s turned her ‘afval’ side hustle into an opportunity not only to earn an income but to employ others over weekends. That’s how real job creation starts, with passion, purpose, and perseverance!

Nokuvela runs a successful spaza shop, and through hard work and dedication, she’s been able to save enough to build a home for her siblings in the Eastern Cape.

These women are proof that when you invest in people, they uplift their families, neighbours, and communities.
