Donald White/ Mandla A. Ndwanya Memorial Fund Bursary South Africa 2025
ABOUT THE BURSARY PROVIDER – DONALD WHITE/ MANDLA A. NDWANYA MEMORIAL FUND
The Donald White/ Mandla A. Ndwanya Memorial Fund was created in 2012 to honor Donald White (a career educator) and Mandla Andrew Ndwanya (an individual with a strong legacy and passion for business studies in South Africa).
To honor both men, White’s family established the fund to provide support to learners in Nyaga/ Gugulethu and its neighboring areas. The Fund was registered as an NPO in the United States in 2017 and through this, formed a Board responsible for major decisions about the future of many young South Africans. The main goal of the fund is to raise money from charitable donations to benefit students and increase global awareness for American and South African students.
