nderstanding ESD Funders:
ESD funds are established by large corporations to support the growth and development of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within their supply chains or specific sectors.
These funds often provide financial assistance, mentorship, and other resources aimed at empowering these businesses and achieving broader socio-economic goals.
Finding Relevant ESD Funders:
Research relevant industry reports or publications: Look for reports or publications focusing on corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives in South Africa, which often mention ESD activities and potential funders.
Contact industry associations: Many industry associations maintain databases or resources listing relevant ESD programs and funders within their respective sectors.
Search online directories: Platforms like the "National Business Support Service (NBSS)" website list various business support resources, including some ESD programs: https://www.dsd.gov.za/.
Explore corporate websites: Many large corporations in South Africa have dedicated CSR or sustainability pages on their websites, often mentioning their ESD initiatives and potential funding opportunities.
Examples of Large Corporations with ESD Programs:
Massmart: Supplier Development Programme focuses on assisting black-owned and managed businesses within their supply chain.
Woolworths: Enterprise Supplier Development program supports emerging SMEs in their supply chain.
Investec: Nextwork Global Exposure program offers young entrepreneurs global exposure and mentorship.
Remember:
Eligibility criteria and focus areas can vary significantly between different ESD funders.

Giving.
Bringing focus
and organisation to
charitable giving.
The Leasing Foundation promotes the view that
giving back is a fundamental part of the fabric of
doing business that extends to more than financial
contributions.
At the same time as raising money for good causes,
we are identifying new and innovative ways to
support those who need help the most.
Our activities include support for major charities
such as Macmillan Cancer Support and also
directly supporting the leading scientists such as
Dr. Katie Sidle at the Queens Square Centre for
Neuromuscular Diseases, who are pushing the
frontiers of knowledge and treatment for disease.
The Leasing Foundation
has become a driving
force for modernising and
updating perceptions of
the leasing industry. It brings
a refreshing new dimension
to the industry’s issues and
opportunities in areas such
as research and innovation,
diversity, nurturing talent,
philanthropy and creating
new pathways for the
development of leasing
professionals. I am delighted
to be involved and contribute
to the journey to reshape
our industry.

Diversity.
Helping women to succeed
in leasing and asset finance.
The inclusion of women in the top ranks of company
leadership has a direct and positive impact.
Companies with the highest representation of
women in management teams have demonstrably
better financial performance.
The Leasing Foundation wants to ensure that the
leasing and asset finance industry is, and is seen
to be, a leading example of the commercial value
of gender diversity. We are achieving this through
innovative programmes of development, monitoring,
mentoring and support.
Women in Leasing is the Foundation’s programme
of networking and skills development that promotes
and enhances women’s contribution to the leasing
