What's the secret ingredient to transforming lives through education and community involvement? Together with our esteemed guest, Matt Koning, founder and CEO of Crew for a Cause, we reveal this magic formula to you. Hear how this charity is championing a cause that's close to many hearts - granting scholarships to bright, underprivileged kids. Be inspired by their unique selection process, using psychometric testing and partnerships with schools across the Western Cape and Johannesburg. Sit back and follow MK's journey, their first beneficiary, now making waves in the tech industry.
Ever wondered how charities maintain a steady revenue stream in the face of South Africa's glaring disparities in schooling fees? Matt takes us backstage into the financial workings of Crew for a Cause, and it's nothing short of innovative. From community funding to partnerships with corporate donors, deceased estates and even a bold, new Bitcoin donation strategy, this is a masterclass in creative financial sustainability. Discover how these measures ensure that 100% of member contributions truly make a difference in the lives of the kids.
But there's more! The Crew for a Cause approach goes beyond scholarships. It's about nurturing a community, fostering mentorship, and encouraging local involvement. Matt shares about their unique 'pod system' and how it forms the bedrock of their work. You'll learn how this system aids in providing individual feedback to students and establishing lifelong mentorship relationships. And it's not just about what's happening now - hear about their exciting future plans, including Bitcoin donations, geographic mapping features to boost local donations, and noteworthy partnerships.
