The Playing Our Part Foundation is a Non-Governmental Organization that was formed by a collective of young men and women who have a passion for giving back to those less privileged. The organization focuses on providing groceries to orphanages and hospices around South Africa with particular focus on HIV Orphaned children. Support is required by homes that house these children and thus the organization focuses on supporting these worthy causes. Funding is primarily received from donors being individuals and small entities.
Impact
Through quarterly home visits, The POP Foundation managed to feed 400 Orphans throughout the course of 2013 and has left a long lasting memory in the minds of the beneficiaries. Our hope is that the orphans will see that people still do care about them and even if we are not with them on a daily basis, their plights are always in our hearts and given a chance, we will do something about it.
Online
Through likes, recommendations and shares, our Twitter and Facebook posts have reached 8500 people in the last 12 months. The purpose of these posts is to create and spread awareness of others peoples suffering and how each one of us can contribute towards providing a better life for them. Even if people don’t sign up to join the POP Foundation, we believe that if we plant the seed of responsibility in a person’s mind, then we would have done something positive.
