A Milestone for a Dedicated Entrepreneur!

We are thrilled to announce that Madeleine, one of the local entrepreneurs who joined our business mentorship and seed funding program in 2024, has just received a brand new oven!

Madeleine's journey is a testament to her dedication and hard work. She completed community training, pitched and defended her business plan, and committed to 12 months of personal business mentorship.

Seeing her joy and the positive impact this will have on her business is incredibly rewarding for our team. No longer needing to borrow her neighbour's oven, Madeleine can now take her culinary creations to new heights!

Watch Madeleine's Joyful Moment: A Heartfelt 'Dankie Grootbos' for Her New Oven!
