💚 Mental health starts in our communities.

It’s still Mental Health Awareness Month, and wellbeing isn’t only personal. It grows where people feel seen, heard and connected, in our homes, schools and neighbourhoods.

That’s the heart of Molweni Guided Conversations, a Cause in Quigney, East London. Through structured dialogue, mediation and youth skills programmes, Molweni creates safe spaces where different generations talk, heal and grow, strengthening the relationships and opportunities communities depend on.

How you can support Molweni:
🤝 Volunteer your time
📓 Donate journaling books so beneficiaries can capture their healing journeys
💛 Make a donation

🧶 Got wool? Got a few hours? You could change someone’s recovery.

For women who have had a mastectomy, a soft, breathable, hand-made breast prosthesis can mean comfort, confidence and dignity. And it’s made by volunteers, just like you.

The Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA) needs 20 volunteers to knit or crochet Knitted Knockers. Patients receive them completely free of charge.

✅ Order your kit (pattern and wool) for R65
✅ Knit or crochet in your own time (around 4–8 hours)
✅ Drop off or post your finished piece to your nearest CANSA Care Centre

Every stitch is a gift. 💗

Food is not someone else's issue. We all need it, every day. This World Food Day, let us work towards a future where everyone can access enough nutritious food with dignity. Whatever your age, background or circumstances, food is a basic need. Make your next act of giving practical: find a food-related Need at forgood.co.za, check what is requested and contribute food, funds or time where needed.

Some partners send advice. Tech4Good sends help.

Philani Mdingi sat through a masterclass on data protection and saw that NGOs had nothing practical to work from. So he built the Digital Governance & Trust board brief.

Most NGOs run lean, with no legal team and no time for a compliance project. They need partners who go all out to make the hard stuff doable.

Thank you, Tech4Good. 🧡

Your details matter as much as your time. Causes that look after both deserve our support.

There is important work beyond the pink ribbon. Causes on our platform such as PinkDrive NPC provides cancer education and screening services, including mobile services for medically uninsured communities. This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let us recognise the people and resources behind that work. Explore PinkDrive's current needs https://www.forgood.co.za/za/en/causes/pinkdrive-npc and support the priorities the Cause has identified. 🎀

That thing you are good at? It could do good for someone else too. 🙂

Our 26 Ways to Do Good series continues this IVY 2026 with sharing a skill. Think beyond your job title: making a spreadsheet clearer, helping organise a space or designing a poster or tutoring children can be a useful contribution. 💙

Find a matching volunteer Need at forgood.co.za and put one of your everyday skills to work.

October is Mental Health Awareness Month in South Africa 💚

1 in 5 South Africans will experience a mental health challenge at some point in their lives. Many of us carry it quietly, because of stigma, cost, or simply not knowing where to start.

This month, let's change that. Ask a friend how they're really doing. Listen without rushing to fix. Support the organisations that are showing up for people every day.

You are not alone.

Meet CEEP. What began with murals in hospitals and clinics grew into educational painting projects in schools and early childhood centres.

Happy Heritage Day, South Africa! ✨

Today we celebrate all the wonderful colours and cultures that make up South Africa! 🌈

From the rhythm of our music to the flavours on our braai, from the many languages we speak to the stories our grandmothers told, every thread makes our Rainbow Nation richer, brighter and more beautiful. 💛

Today is for wearing your traditional attire with pride, sharing a meal with the people you love, teaching someone a word in your mother tongue, and honouring the heritage that made you who you are. 🥁🍖👗

Our differences are our strength, and when we celebrate each other, we grow together. 🤝

Since July 2026, nine women have been found dead in and around Kempton Park and the wider Ekurhuleni area - the ninth discovered just this morning in Dawn Park, Boksburg.💔 More femicide cases have been reported elsewhere in South Africa.

In 2025, government formally declared gender-based violence and femicide a national disaster. That was meant to unlock urgency, coordination, and resources. Almost a year on, women are still being found on roadsides. 😓

Statements and hashtags aren't enough!

Real change comes from sustained, funded, on-the-ground work shelters, legal support, counselling, prevention programmes, and safe spaces for survivors. That work is being done every day by NGOs across the country, but they need support to keep going.

This isn't a moment to look away. It's a moment to act.
