NPO Foundation

Who we are

The Foundation for Peace and Prosperity is a South African non-profit organization dedicated to creating sustainable, locally-led solutions that expand educational opportunity, strengthen youth skills, and build resilient, self-sufficient communities. We partner with schools, tertiary institutions, community groups, and local businesses to deliver practical training, financial empowerment, and leadership development for young people and families in under-resourced areas.

Our Mission

Empowering marginalized communities through training and education, youth and leadership development and community support creating pathways to stability and lasting prosperity.

Our Vision

We envision resilient communities where every individual thrives with dignity, empowered by inclusive opportunities and long-term sustainability.


Our Values

 

The SSC Group’s mandate was further broadened to include making a difference to the lives of people by using its business interests and networks to contribute to peace and prosperity by means of a non-profit foundation.

The SSC Group has a deeply-rooted care for others, and offers support and aid in both financial and goods donations across a number of worthy causes.

Education is highly valued by the group, with the belief that a good education can open up a world of opportunity to lesser advantaged students. SSC regularly offers bursaries to young people struggling to meet the financial requirements of secondary and/or tertiary education.

The Group receives requests for help often, and within our capacity we try to help as many people as we are able to.

NPO Number: 080095

Section 18A will be issued for all donations received.

Bursaries and Mentorship

Why our programs matter

  • Inequality in education: Many public schools remain under-resourced and show low learning outcomes; investing in students, teacher development, and learning materials directly improves pupil performance.

  • Youth economic exclusion: Youth unemployment and NEET rates are high; bursaries plus mentorship improve tertiary completion and labour market outcomes.

  • Digital divide: Limited access to devices and connectivity reduces young people’s ability to access jobs and online learning; digital skills training increases employability.

  • Community resilience: Locally owned livelihood projects increase household food security and income, and strengthen social capital.

 

Why fund us

  • Evidence-driven, co-designed interventions with communities and schools.

  • Integrated model across education, youth skills, and community enterprise to address root causes and pathways to economic inclusion.

  • Clear outcomes and simple monitoring to show funders the impact quickly and transparently.
