The Direct Transact Foundation is a Christian Foundation where our motto of making a meaningful difference by way of giving back to the community, bears testament to various successful projects, which all have one thing in common:
A can-do attitude regardless of the odds.
Our Vision
A world where every vulnerable individual, especially the elderly and youth, is empowered and supported to lead a dignified and fulfilling life.
Our Mission
To make a meaningful difference in the lives of the elderly and youth by providing essential resources, support, and opportunities for growth and well-being, driven by our moral duty to humanity.
Our Strategy
To prioritise initiatives addressing the needs of the elderly and youth, including orphaned children and those who have suffered abuse and neglect, while regularly assessing the impact of our projects to ensure they are meeting their goals and making a positive difference.
The Founders
Direct Transact enables Banking- and Payments-as-a-Service and was born out of the collapse of Saambou Bank in 2002.
Since then, they've continued to build on their can-do attitude to adversity and today Direct Transact is a well established leader in its field.
“We have always felt that two of the most vulnerable groups within society is the children and the elderly, and in this regard, we have earmarked them as the focus areas for the Direct Transact Foundation. Over the years we have also felt a specific calling to assist orphaned children and/or children that have suffered abuse and neglect.”
- Hennie Dreyer and Anthony de Gray Birch
