Why choose this way of giving?
Of course you can donate money directly to any non profit or social enterprise in South Africa or through a giving portal like www.myggsa.co.za. But SASIX investors prefer to see their giving in terms of investment rather than just an ordinary donation. These investors want to know specifically how lives will change because of their giving and that their donation – or ‘investment’ – will be properly spent and accounted for. Their measure of success is not necessarily the amount given, but the life-changing results their investments produce.
For the first time in South Africa, SASIX enables performance-based corporate and private social investment, while at the same time building a culture of accountability amongst beneficiary organisations. SASIX investors contribute towards projects which are well planned, by organisations with a good track record of performance and the necessary capacity to carry them out effectively. Investors know the money will be used for a sound project by a reputable organisation and receive regular updates on how the money is being spent and what kind of social impact it is having.
SASIX offers a more considered and engaged way of giving.
