Give once. Let it be invested, grown, and turned into
an asset that feeds, clothes, and shelters — for generations.
A Waqf is an endowment. Instead of being spent once and gone, the gift is held and protected forever — the capital is never touched. It is put to work, and only what it earns is given to those in need.
It is one of the oldest and most beautiful forms of charity in Islam. A well dug a thousand years ago that still gives water today. An orchard whose fruit still feeds the hungry. The reward flows back to the giver long after they are gone, with every single act of good it produces.
"One gift. Given once. Yet giving still — a hundred years from now."
We build the Waqf in deliberate, transparent stages. Every Rand is accounted for, and nothing is rushed — because this is meant to last.
Donations build the asset. From there it is held forever — never sold. Year after year, the income it earns flows steadily downward, into charity that never ends.
Donations build the asset. The asset is held forever, and the income it earns flows down — into eternal charity.
A Waqf only lasts if the rules are clear — what may never be touched, and what may be spent. Ours are simple, and they are the whole reason it can give forever.
Your gift becomes corpus — the permanent capital of the Waqf. It is ring-fenced from running costs and never spent: not this year, not in fifty years. It is held only in Shariah-compliant, non-riba holdings, and it stays in the fund's name in perpetuity.
Each year we draw no more than 4% of the fund's value. That figure is not arbitrary — it is the long-established endowment drawdown rate: the most a perpetual fund can pay out while keeping its capital whole. Anything earned above the 4% is reinvested, so the fund keeps pace with rising prices instead of quietly shrinking.
The 4% drawn is spent where it can be seen — bread, cooked meals, water, blankets. Never on the corpus, never on once-off overheads. At today's price of R15.10 a loaf, every R19 630 endowed puts a loaf in someone's hands every week — forever.
"Spend R10 000 on bread and you give 662 loaves — then it is over. Endow the same R10 000 and you give 26 loaves a year, every year, long after you are gone."
A normal donation does enormous good — once. A Waqf takes that same gift and lets it give again, and again, every year that follows.
Same gift. One gives once. The other gives year after year, without end.
Be among the founders of a Waqf that will still be giving long after all of us are gone. Every contribution, however small, becomes part of something that never stops.
