Fiscal Flycatcher Babies Thrive
Our parting shot this week is of the fiscal flycatcher babies that were born a week ago in a nest just outside our office.
At Grootbos Foundation, we are proud to share the inspiring progress of entrepreneurs in our programme:
Luleka has turned her spaza shop in the remote Zwelihle township into a thriving full-time business that now supports her family.
Anselmo, a male hairdresser also based in Zwelihle, has expanded his salon to employ a second person through business mentorship and proper costing.
Florence, a single mother from Hawston, has grown her home-based catering business to fully support her family. Her dedication has seen her business flourish over the past year.
Wendy is renowned for her traditional wear and high-quality garments in Zwelihle. Her reputation continues to grow as she now stocks material for her customers.
Sizwe, an enthusiastic auto-electrician with a heart for helping others, is steadily building a strong business in Zwelihle.
We are proud of these hardworking entrepreneurs who continue to develop their businesses and uplift their communities.

Thank you for the kind messages of concern and care this week as an early summer fynbos fire burned between Gansbaai and Stanford.
The view at Grootbos shows a clear outline of where the fire moved towards the Walker Bay area and onto the reserve.
From all of us at Grootbos Foundation, we wish you a fabulous weekend full of wild discoveries.
