About Siyafunda Education Foundation
Discover the heart and drive behind Siyafunda Education Foundation, a leader in advancing STEM education in South Africa. Our work strengthens digital education, expands youth empowerment initiatives, and supports community-focused education development across the country.
EMPOWERING EDUCATION WITH STEM
The Siyafunda Education Foundation (SEF) is dedicated to transforming STEM education in South Africa through innovative, hands-on learning. Our programmes empower learners in rural and semi-urban schools, bridging digital divides and supporting long-term youth empowerment across communities.
Our programmes bridge identified educational gaps and prepare education ecosystems with relevant skills for future success. By engaging communities in programme development, SEF ensures that initiatives are culturally sensitive and foster local ownership.
Through strategic partnerships with tech companies, NPOs, and donors, we bring sustainable education technology, purposeful research, and stable funding to rural areas. SEF not only promotes academic excellence but also drives economic empowerment by training facilitators, supporting local businesses, and creating job opportunities.
SEF aspires to be a focused STEM education leader, a valued community collaborator, and a partnership powerhouse—aligning with the SDGs and committing to making a lasting impact.
