At the Dr Musa Hlongwane Foundation, we are making a profound impact in the lives of young girls and their community through the generous support of donors who are dedicated to the cause. Our mission is to equip girls in underprivileged communities with the resources, tools and support necessary to unleash their full potential and help them to flourish. By focusing on breaking barriers through education, facilitating access to opportunities and providing mentorship, we envision a world where girls can dream without limits and achieve their highest aspirations.
Our ultimate goal is to cultivate a future where empowerment, boundless possibilities and equality thrive through collaborative efforts.

Many learners today must attend school barefoot and in worn old clothes because their families cannot afford uniforms. This is where caring people like yourself can lend a helping hand and make a difference. Your donation of uniforms and footwear (new or pre-owned) or finances to the Dr Musa Hlongwane Foundation ensures we can distribute these items to those in need.
Sanitary hygiene is a basic necessity for girls. However, studies reveal that up to 30% of schoolgirls in South Africa skip class when menstruating because they cannot afford or lack access to sanitary products. Through the Dr Musa Hlongwane Foundation, individuals and organisations can support this worthy cause by donating sanitary pads and toiletries or by contributing financially. We will procure and distribute these essential items at selected schools and communities.
High inflation is crippling households, impacting the quality and quantity of food available to poorer families. This means that many children are going to sleep hungry – a desperate situation that calls for urgent intervention. The Dr Musa Hlongwane Foundation is actively helping to alleviate their plight and renew hope in these precious lives.
It is a basic human right to have food, shelter and clothing. Yet, so many young girls and their families still live in less-than-ideal conditions –their clothes torn and often with no jacket to wear in freezing winter conditions. Here at the Dr Musa Hlongwane Foundation, we want to be part of the solution by restoring dignity to those in need. Because that one, seemingly insignificant child could one day change the world for the better.
There are many talented schoolgirls who could compete at the national or international levels in sports, yet are unable to develop their potential because they have no access to the right equipment. This is where donations of sports equipment can have far-reaching effects in the lives of learners. Contact the Dr Musa Hlongwane Foundation today to discuss how you could best contribute to this vital area of need in underprivileged communities and schools.
They say it is more blessed to give than to receive. This is not only evident in the feeling of satisfaction that comes from giving to others but the profound effect the gift often has on the recipient’s life.
As part of our mandate to help meet the needs of underprivileged girls, we welcome contributions of essential items and other necessities such as stationery to ensure these worthy beneficiaries have every opportunity to succeed and make a positive impact in society.
