HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US!

Keeping Mabaso love alive for 20 years
how you can help us
OUR HISTORY

How it all began

The Winnie Mabaso Foundation was established in 2004 to support vulnerable and orphaned children in South Africa, particularly those living with HIV.

Over the years our work has extended to encompass all ages of those who are disadvantaged and in need from babes in arms to grannies.

As a Foundation we are enormously proud to see how Mabaso love has changed, and continues to change the lives of countless people in South Africa.

Celebrating 20 Years of Mabaso Love!

Over 1000 turned up to celebrate 20 years of Mabaso Love on the informal settlement of Meriting on Saturday 25th May 2024.

Here are a few on the highlights! What a fantastic day!
