Together, we can achieve the impossible!
Jumpstart, powered by Gift of the Givers, is more than a programme, it’s a powerful youth movement inspired by the belief that simple ideas can lead to extraordinary results.
Just as Gift of the Givers began as a simple idea and grew into the largest disaster relief organisation in Africa, Jumpstart is here to empower YOU to achieve your dreams and make a real difference in your community. We believe that young people are our future. With Jumpstart, you will have the tools and support to transform challenges into opportunities, drive positive change in your school and community, and inspire your peers to do the same. It’s time to take charge of your future and show the world what superheroes like YOU are capable of.
We believe that young people are the key to creating a brighter future. With Jumpstart, you’ll gain access to free resources, including mentorship, skills development, career guidance, and a supportive community of solution-oriented superheroes from high schools across South Africa. Whether you're looking to tackle challenges in your school, uplift your community, or inspire your peers, Jumpstart provides the tools and encouragement you need to succeed.
The 2025 pilot will feature ten high schools leading the way, and we’re excited to showcase their incredible journeys. Watch this space for updates, stories, and inspiration.
Ready to Jumpstart Your Journey?
Registration for the 2026 programme is now open to all high schools across South Africa - completely free of charge, no matter your location or access to resources.
