Not every hero wears a cape. And some heroes choose anonymity, making sure their name or brand doesn’t deflect attention from the causes they support.

Anonymous donor gives R2,7m to NWU causes

The NWU recently received an anonymous gift of R2 746 000 to be distributed among various projects and programmes at the university.

“Those who give their time and money to support the good causes of the university are truly heroes of society,” said Ben Zaaiman, senior manager of Development and Fundraising at the NWU. “Although we would love to reveal our treasured benefactor to the world, we understand and honour their wish for anonymity.”

The NWU will direct the contribution towards bursaries for students, eradicating student debt, our Ikateleng scholar support programme and the Meal-a-Day nutrition support scheme, as well as research projects at the university.

Ben invites alumni, friends of the university and businesses to join this donor in supporting the NWU in its dream of producing dynamic graduates who will transform South Africa, the continent and the world.
