Shanduka Black Umbrellas
Shanduka believes that the development of business skills is one of the most important aspects of ensuring the economic empowerment of previously disadvantaged people in South Africa. To that effect, Shanduka partnered with Black Umbrellas, an initiatiative conceptualised by entrepreneurs to provide support to emerging enterprises.
Shanduka Black Umbrellas was a project first conceived as Black Umbrellas by Cape Town social entrepreneurs Charles Maisel and Mark Frankel and proved to be highly effective in supporting SMMEs. The model has now been adopted by the Shanduka Foundation with the intention of expanding the project countrywide. Shanduka Black Umbrellas is supported through The Mabindu Trust.
