Empower a dream and change a future!

Education is the key to unlocking a world of possibilities for the next generation, but for many, access to quality schooling is out of reach. To change that, the Star Foundation is proud to join forces with Crew for A Cause to provide scholarships for 10 gifted scholars from under-served communities to attend prestigious high schools in the Western Cape.

The impact – life changing! These young minds have the potential to do incredible things and with the support of Crew for A Cause, we are thrilled to turn their dreams into reality. By funding their high school journeys from Grade 8 to Matric, The Star Foundation is ensuring that these scholars receive the education they deserve, which in turn, will uplift their families and inspire their communities, proving that a single act of kindness can ripple through generations.

“We are thrilled to partner with The Star Foundation. Together, we have a unique opportunity to make a real and lasting impact on the education landscape. By combining our strengths, we can empower more young minds, create brighter futures, and drive meaningful change where needed most. This is just the beginning of something special!” – Matt Koning – Director and Founder, Crew for A Cause.

Crew for A Cause was founded in 2017 when 15 friends came together as a “Crew” to each contribute a small amount every month to the school fees of a single student.

Since then, the crew has grown to 310 members who collectively support a growing network of over 25 scholars across 10 schools. The Star Foundation’s annual donation will see the number grow to over 35 fully funded scholarships in 2025.

To ensure each scholar can thrive holistically, Crew for A Cause provides guidance, mentorship, and other tools and resources each step of the way. Over the next 5 years, we invite you to join us on this exciting journey to empower 10 future leaders.

Are you interested in getting involved? Your contribution will help ensure that the youth are given the opportunities needed to maximise their potential. Even a small donation will have a huge impact. Join the crew today!
