No matter how small or big, every donation to any project can make a huge difference.

We are very grateful for all the donations we have received in the past. To show our gratitude, we have listed the donations below: 

container

Our partner, Moja - Stitch for education, got funds to send a container full of equipment to the organization for our project to make an innovation center and open a preschool.

School uniforms

Every year we have an event donating school uniforms and stationery to children from Soweto. This event is proudly sponsored by Chriss Husein, Joni and Sonya. They are all former volunteers in SYI, and come together to donate to this event every year.
