A new thing the organisation has done is adopted villages around the country that they are calling Angel Villages. To do this, they launched a fundraising campaign to raise over R2 500 000 on Charidy and to get the funds, had to reach 50% of that prior to their event which they have done successfully.

The Angel Network has already assisted 200 000 people in need in all nine provinces – but it intends to increase its reach more significantly through its #ConnectingKindness campaign, aiming to raise a ’’staggering’’ amount of money due to poverty-alleviating measures never being more urgent.

The Gauteng Together initiative launched in April 2020 by the Angel Network, Ahmed Kathrada Foundation and CONECKT to address the social impact of the pandemic.
