We directly address the educational crisis by tackling critical infrastructure decay. Our mission is to fix and rebuild broken, unsafe, and damaged school facilities, ensuring students have access to secure, dignified, and functional learning environments that foster health and academic success.
Driving Critical Awareness
The WALKING THE TALK Foundation project successfully reached over 100,000 people through all media platforms, including traditional channels (newspapers, TV, and Radio) and digital engagement across social media (such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube). This extensive visibility brought crucial public attention to the devastating impact of the KwaZulu-Natal floods and winddisasters, as well as the chronic deterioration of schools, highlighting the urgent need for support and intervention.
Raised Funds
The project, in partnership with Walking The Talk Foundation, successfully raised an impressive R 1 000 000 to support schools devastated by both the 2022 floods and the 2025 wind disaster.
This significant achievement ensured that much-needed resources were provided immediately to aid educational recovery and help the affected schools rebuild for a resilient future.
Building for the Future
Through its successful execution, the project has laid the essential groundwork for future, expanded initiatives to support schools across Africa. The growing public support and powerful momentum generated by Walking The Talk Foundation will ensure a sustainable platform for driving long-term educational change and lasting impact.
Walked the Talk
The Foundation demonstrated the true power of commitment, walking 1,850 kilometers in four months. This innovative journey captivated the nation, successfully raising critical awareness and funds while redefining how communities engage to achieve meaningful, lasting impact.
We’re here to support those in need.
