Sustainable NPO Funding in South Africa with Rudolf Rautenbach

Loading player...
In this episode, John Watson interviews Rudolf Rautenbach about his new book "Sustainable NPO Funding in South Africa - Making BBBEE work for your cause".

They discuss the challenges facing NPOs, the difference between NPOs and public benefit organizations, and the importance of diversifying funding. Rudolf clarifies the tax exempt status and how structuring your organisation can make it attractive to donors. They talk about the opportunities for NPOs to use BBBEE prescripts to generate sustainable revenue and work closer with private companies. Early childhood education and environmental sustainability are the best sectors to look for opportunities. The NPO landscape in South Africa is changing, so they need to make sure they are on top of their administration.
