The Impact Your Donation Can Have
Enables one young person to discover their future
A career assessment and mentorship session that helps one learner uncover their strengths and chart a path out of unemployment.
⚡ Why this matters: 46% of South African youth are unemployed. For most, it starts with never being shown what's possible.
Trains one healthcare worker to support 200 children
Full training for one healthcare worker to guide up to 200 HIV-positive children through age-appropriate disclosure — so they understand their diagnosis and stick with treatment.
⚡ Why this matters: 150,000 children in South Africa live with HIV. Fewer than half know their own status.
Equips 50 learners to make informed choices about their lives
A full classroom transformed with health literacy and life skills — empowering 50 young people to recognise risk, resist pressure, and protect their futures.
⚡ Why this matters: 1 in 3 pregnant teenagers in South Africa never returns to school. Early intervention changes everything.
Supports a grandparent raising a vulnerable child
Enables one grandparent to access guidance and support, while providing one nutritious meal for their grandchild.
⚡ Why this matters: Nearly 8 million South African children are raised by grandparents (38% of all children), yet most caregivers face financial hardship with little to no support.
Over 1 Million Lives Touched
Children and caregivers reached with child-centred HIV care, disclosure support, and the award-winning TalkTool app across South Africa and 5 countries.
Learners reached across 120 schools with career exploration and mentorship, equipping young people for their futures.
Youth reached with health education, GBV prevention, life skills, career guidance, and mental health support since 2022.
Trusted. Proven. Recognised.

“Before (Grandparents) Spark , I shouted and beat my grandchildren. Now I sit down, talk to them, and we understand each other. I even see the difference, they listen, they smile, they change. Spark taught me patience, budgeting and to love myself too.”
