There is a huge need in South Africa to develop economic activity in poorer communities. Crime, unemployment, disease and social dysfunction are all directly linked to a lack of economic opportunity. The African Dream Trust addresses this directly in a practical and effective way in the communities that need it most. |
|
| Enterprise Development is a critical part of broad based black economic empowerment and carries with it points for BE Scorecards, but many organisations are uncertain of how to invest in Enterprise Development. The African Dream Trust offers the ideal solution. All of our projects and activities fall squarely into the definition of Enterprise Development. Any contribution to an African Dream Trust project whether financial or in kind qualifies as Enterprise Development expenditure. | |
| In addition to increasing an organisation’s BE rating contributing to an African Dream Trust project gives the following critical benefits: | |
| • | all of the overhead expenses of the Trust, including salaries, are independently funded and therefore all contributions received flow directly into projects. |
| • | any business started by the Trust is professionally mentored and nurtured for as long as is needed to ensure success. A lack of post start up support is the reason many businesses fail and this is why we allocate so much resource to this critical service. |

Every cent contributed is spent entirely
on enterprise development and not on
administrative overhead.
