Our Corporate Social Investments

Global Fund For Jesus

He would take care of the poor, the vulnerable, the afflicted, the sick, the oppressed and all those who are affected by all forms of oppression.

GFFJ will invest in high-impact projects in all developing countries and where necessary it will partner with existing organisations to execute its mandate.
The Global Fund For Jesus owns an 11.5% equity stake in Sakhumnotho Group Holdings (Pty) Ltd. Sakhumnotho Group Holdings was the first company to donate some of its shares to the Fund. This decision has led to phenomenal growth in the Company. Since the Vision for GFFJ was given to the Chairman of Sakhumnotho Group, in 2009, Sakhumnotho Group has funded more than 90% of the operational costs of GFFJ to date.
Short-term objective

Medium to long-term objective
The medium to long-term objective of the Fund is to build Schools, Orphanages, Shelters, Old Age Homes, Entrepreneurship Centres, Clinics, Hospitals, etc, in areas where they are needed the most and where significant impact can be realised in the lives of people.
Winning souls
The other objective of the Fund is to win many souls to Jesus Christ through not only preaching but also in doing that which Jesus would do, thus demonstrating His love for His people.
