Why was WCMA Incepted?

We Care Mother Africa was incepted to assist impoverished South Africans in the context of anemic economic growth, stark unemployment levels and high consumer pricing. WCMA emphasises the importance of LONG-TERM, SUSTAINABLE partnerships between a corporate and its selected NGO/s for substantial community development. In other words, a corporate social investment should consider long-term projects over AD HOC or SHORT-TERM campaigns that are unable to sustain communities. Following this, WCMA chooses to distribute basic food and hygiene packs amongst impoverished communities per province for a minimum of one year. Such packs serve to alleviate the income crisis prevalent in impoverished households. This crisis is detrimental to the physical, psycho-social and economic wellbeing of millions of South Africans, and it undermines the ability of households to become socially and economically empowered. We will assess the impact of our work in each community and, with the support of our donors, we endeavor to expand our community reach. In this way, we strive to empower communities and contribute to economic growth.

The majority of South Africans endure hardships on a daily basis as a result of endemic social and economic challenges that perpetuate poverty and inequality. There is a prevailing context of anemic economic growth, stark unemployment levels and high consumer pricing. 25% percent of South Africans are extremely poor, whilst over half the population struggle to fulfil their basic food and non-food requirements—rent, transport, electricity, education, clothing, food, domestic and personal hygiene consumables (Stats SA, 2019).
