In response to ongoing student protests across the country, Sibu Mabena, founder of
Duma Collective along with social media influencer, Lasizwe Dambuza launched an
initiative to help students who are struggling to access enough funds to keep attending
university — and has already raised R2 million in a milestone for the campaign.
The #R10GoesALongWay initiative, launched on March 12 and created alongside fellow
influencers Nkateko “Takkies” Maswanganye, and Ayanda Mhlongo, aims to raise funds for
university students who have been refused access to register for this academic year as a
result of historic debt.
