About us

Who we are

A Helping Hand SA is a Non-Profit Organisation established to bring hope, relief, and empowerment to communities in need across South Africa. We exist to serve the unemployed, vulnerable, and disadvantaged by offering daily meals, skills training, crisis response, and awareness programs that address pressing community challenges.

Our work is built on compassion and driven by action. We understand that hunger and unemployment are not just statistics but real struggles that affect families daily. With this in mind, A Helping Hand SA strives to be a reliable source of support, guidance, and empowerment.

What we do

We believe that no child should go to bed hungry or be denied the chance to learn. Together, we are building stronger, healthier, and more hopeful communities.

Education Initiatives

Through our education initiatives, we provide learning support, school resources, and skills development opportunities to children and young people in disadvantaged communities.

Food Support

We know that no child can learn and no family can thrive on an empty stomach. Through our food support programs, we provide essential food parcels to households facing hunger, ensuring families have access to nutritious meals.

Donation For Poor

We believe that every act of giving has the power to change lives. Through generous donations, we are able to provide essential support to the poor and vulnerable, including food parcels, education resources, and crisis relief.
