    Company description

    The Motsepe Foundation was established in 1999 by Mr Patrice Motsepe and Dr Precious Moloi-Motsepe with a mission to improve the lives of individuals and communities across South Africa. The foundation was inspired by the African concept of 'ubuntu', which embodies the principles of generosity, compassion, and community support. The act of giving back is deeply rooted in African culture and has been a vital part of the continent's social fabric for generations.

    Bursary description

    These bursaries encompass funding for tuition fees, accommodation, as well as a stipend to cover the cost of textbooks and other essential study materials. Beyond financial support, the foundation also offers mentorship and networking opportunities aimed at assisting students in achieving success within their chosen fields.
