This is something we are very excited about!
When you make a purchase at Divi Engine, we will give a gift on your behalf to the Sozo Foundation!
What is the Sozo Foundation?
The Sozo Foundation is a non-profit organisation based in the impoverished Cape Flats community of Vrygrond, Cape Town, South Africa.
Their vision
They want to see the community of Vrygrond living with dignity, purpose and hope. They hope to do this by opening up opportunities for holistic development in three key areas:
- Education
- Skills
- Social Enterprise
What they’re doing?
Sozo runs five core projects that work to promote Education and Skills for Youth in Vrygrond. Here are just two of them:
The Sozo Educentre
The Educentre is their after-school tutoring and mentorship programme for high school learners from the Vrygrond community. It provides a safe space for 100 high school learners between the ages of 13 – 18 years to be equipped and empowered within their own community to achieve their full potential.
The Sozo Youth Cafe.
The Cafe provides a safe, creative and vibrant space for unemployed young people between the ages of 16 – 26 years. Here they are equipped, trained and mentored so that they can find viable employment.
Sozo also offer an eight-month programme that provides young people with skills development training. They partner with businesses and organisations inside and outside of Vrygrond who can offer internships for young adults, which will lead to work experience and full-time jobs.
You can read more about them on their website or on social media – if you feel stirred to support them further please get in touch with them.
How does it work and how does it affect me?
We believe in giving, money can be good but the love of money is not. As part of our fight with the love of money; giving away some helps us to realise what is important in life – give back to others. We want to make it clear that this is OUR initiative and does NOT affect you.
- Every time you make a purchase, depending on the monetary value, we will give a gift to the Sozo Foundation. This could from a meal for a school child to a session of a 10 week skills course.
- We make this gift on your behalf – you do not pay extra for this.
- The money used to pay for this gift comes out of our profits
- When you make a purchase, you will get an email with a certificate of gratitude explaining what we gifted on your behalf. Please feel free to print this and put it on your wall 😀
We hope you enjoy this and any feedback or questions please do comment below!
Being able to help is a bless, What goes around, comes around.
Poder ayudar es una bendición, lo que uno da, siempre regresa.
Excelente
Absolutamente sorprendido de que con mi compra esté aportando a este tipo de causas. Realmente está iniciativa habla muy bien de ustedes cómo empresa (Divi Engine), felicidades y que Dios les regrese el doble.
Give you a virtual hug for this surprise 🙂
I’m glad to choose your company for getting a great plugin and also help the Sozo Foundation.
Amazing – thank you for your purchase. This helps us to give and help others! Without you, we cannot do this.
Wow just got this email after purchasing a lifetime membership. I always try to do business with stand-up companies. Glad I found you guys!
That is an incredibly kind comment. Know that your purchase will be helping these kids directly!
Comment * Sono felice di aver contribuito a questa iniziativa. Grazie.
Grazie! Non possiamo farlo senza di te
I love this. What a pleasant surprise in my inbox following purchase. Thank you!
All thanks go to you and our other awesome customers. We cannot do this without you 😀 Thank you!
What a pleasant surprise, I didn’t know that this was going to happen – thank you.
Pleasure – glad it was a nice surprise for you 😀 Thank you for helping them!
I had an internship as a baker once (which I apparently just gifted through Divi Engine purchase to a student!) would love to know who it is so I could give some tips, feedback and support.
Hi Andreas,
Thanks for the comment. We do not have direct communication with the students (I guess for security measures) – I could put you in touch with one of the staff at Sozo if you wanted? Appreciate the time you want to offer helping
It’s really great to know that my purchase made a bit of a difference somewhere in the world. Thanks for your awesomeness. Will continue to support Divi Engine! Good vibes.
Thanks Victoria – it goes a long way. We are about to release the latest report on what has been given and it is amazing to see how every purchase, when added together does so much for these students
This is great – keep up the good work – you’re an inspiration to all of us business owners to re-think and do the same in our own areas of influence / passions / leadings.
Thanks! This is our goal by sharing this – try to convince others to do the same 😀 Have a great week
That’s awesome Pete.
Just bought Mega Menu.
Thanks for the plugins and your generosity.
All best, JB
Thanks JB, really appreciate the support!
Did you get your certificate, what did you think of it?
