WHAT WE DO
MAD Leadership Foundation focuses on leadership development through education: the approach is to identify academically talented scholars, who do not have the necessary financial resources, and offer them support in the areas of education, leadership and life-skills development.
As of 2016, we currently have 137 scholars on the Make A Difference Leadership Foundation Scholarship Programme, which is our primary focus. MAD Leadership Foundation also supports a Broad-based Education Programme, with a further 1,287 children benefitting through the Eco Children programme.
Scholarship Support Programme
We holistically invest in our 137 scholars’ academic, wellness, life-skills, mentorship and leadership journeys, ensuring that through the 9+ years they are with us, they are given every opportunity to reach their full potential as South Africa’s future leaders.
MoreBroad-Based Education Programme
Our Broad-based Education Programme is a means by which we can address the general education and environmental crisis in South Africa, by supporting projects that create positive change in under-privileged, rural communities.
