How Our Sponsors Benefit

Hunger & Thirst is registered as a: 
  • Section 21 Company with the Registrar of Companies (CIPRO)
  • Non Profit Organization (NPO) with the Department of Social Development
  • Public Benefit Organization (PBO) with SARS
Tax Advantages: 
In terms of Sec 18A of the Income Tax Act, we are authorized to issue donation receipts, making your donations tax deductible.
BEE Advantages:
Entities also get up to 25 points (out of 100 points) on their BEE scorecard, as more than 80% of our foundation’s beneficiaries are previously disadvantaged individuals.
Self-fulfillment & the Joy of Contribution:
Apart from these practical benefits, the deeper benefit of becoming involved in our mission is the chance to reach out and enrich the life of a child in need.  The extent of positive repercussions stemming from this one action cannot be known or calculated.  Who knows who this child will become one day?  A future leader in our land?  A teacher themselves?  Who knows who he or she in turn will reach out to and assist?  You can be responsible for massive, positive change within a person, a community, a country.

Leave a Legacy

Corporate Sponsors: Please use some of your CSI budget to sponsor as many children as possible for at least 12 months with a view to extending to 36 months once you assure yourselves of the viability of our program.  
You can also offer the opportunity to your employees to personally adopt a child as their part in our community development program.

     

“There are certain things that are fundamental to human fulfillment. The essence of these needs is captured in the phrase 'to live, to love, to learn, to leave a legacy'. The need to live is our physical need for such things as food, clothing, shelter, economical well-being, health. The need to love is our social need to relate to other people, to belong, to love and to be loved. The need to learn is our mental need to develop and to grow. And the need to leave a legacy is our spiritual need to have a sense of meaning, purpose, personal congruence, and contribution.” Stephen Covey
