The Orphans in South Africa
The OEWF is unique program that brings sunshine and hope into the lives of the many orphans and vulnerable children in our community. There are more than two million orphans and vulnerable children in South Africa.
The Orphans Endowment Fund (OEWF) is unique in that it provides for the needs of the most vulnerable in our community in a sustainable way and one which is eternally rewarding for the participants in the Fund.
Our Programmes
In needy communities, when parents die or a surviving adult is chronically or terminally ill, children face having to care for themselves and their siblings.
Winter Warmth Program
The winter period in South Africa sees a number of deaths and suffering due to harsh conditions, with people forced into poverty being disproportionately affected.
Ready for School Program
Every year, hundreds of school children are left with the reality of having no school stationery or uniforms to welcome them back to the new school year.
The Care and Support Program
Funds from the OEWF are used to support Islamic Relief South Africa’s projects benefiting orphaned and vulnerable children (OVC) in South Africa.
Our Partners
The OEWF was established recently by three partners
