The 2023 PPS Foundation Annual Report
Building A Brighter Tomorrow
With a firm belief in the power of education, the PPS Foundation is working tirelessly to create a brighter future for South Africa. Together, we are building a society where education is accessible to all, unlocking doors of opportunity and fostering sustainable growth for individuals and communities alike. Through our comprehensive programmes, we enable school leavers to overcome financial hurdles and pursue higher education, but also focus on enhancing job-readiness and equipping students with the skills necessary to reach their full potential as professionals.
THE CHAIRMAN’S ADDRESS
The Foundation actively supports students in their journey towards academic achievement and career readiness.
Dr Sybil Seoka
Chairman
In 2023 we witnessed several key milestones that exemplify our annual report theme, "Empowering Minds, Building Success". Nineteen of our bursary-funded students completed their studies, marking a significant achievement in our efforts to support higher education. Beyond providing bursaries, we actively worked with universities to create conducive learning environments through our University Support Programme. This year, we launched the Careers Centre at the University of Fort Hare. We also partnered with the University of the Western Cape to host a careers day, which successfully attracted many students, raising awareness of potential career paths and professional opportunities.
