When the Shanduka Foundation was launched in 2004, Shanduka Group made a commitment to spend R100 million on corporate social investments over ten years. Shanduka is well on track to achieve this goal, having spent R64 million to date. In addition, when Shanduka was founded, 5% of its shareholding was set aside for two trusts: Fundani, an educational trust, and Mabindu, a small business development trust. These trusts support the entities within the Shanduka Foundation through which it carries out its social investments.
