“Adopt-a-Girl-Child” Empowerment Program
Change One Life. Impact a Generation.
In many communities across South Africa, girls grow up without the safety, support, and empowerment they deserve. The Adopt-a-Girl-Child Empowerment Program is EFED’s flagship initiative that gives caring donors the opportunity to sponsor the protection, education, and personal development of a vulnerable girl.
What Your Support Means
Each donation to this program ensures that a girl:
- Has access to life-skills mentorship, emotional support, and role-modeling from EFED-trained fathers and facilitators.
- Attends self-defense and safety workshops.
- Receives menstrual hygiene packs, school supplies, and empowerment resources.
- Is included in group sessions that teach confidence, personal agency, and gender-based violence prevention.
- Gains access to long-term empowerment tools—helping her grow into a confident, secure woman.
How You Can Help
You can adopt a girl-child by donating:
| Monthly Donation | Empowers Her To: |
|---|---|
| R100 | Attend mentorship circles and receive a dignity pack |
| R250 | Participate in workshops and receive a support kit |
| R500 | Be fully sponsored into a year-long empowerment track |
| R1000+ | Receive long-term mentorship, protection, and training |
You can also make a once-off donation of any amount—every rand counts.
Why This Program Matters
Girls are disproportionately affected by:
- Gender-based violence
- Limited access to mentorship
- Poor sexual health education
- Lack of role models and emotional support
This initiative closes those gaps by connecting them with trained male mentors, creating safer communities, and reshaping fatherhood narratives.
Tax Deductible Contributions (SARS Benefits)
Donating to EFED qualifies you for a Section 18A Tax Certificate under the South African Income Tax Act. This means:
- You can claim up to 10% of your taxable income as a deduction for donations made.
- You’ll receive an official certificate at the end of the financial year for submission to SARS.
- Corporate donors can align giving with BBBEE scorecard benefits under socio-economic development.
After donating, simply email your proof of payment and request a tax certificate.
