Our Story
Building Hope, Strengthening Communities
​
Empowersmith is a Nonprofit Company registered in South Africa, born from a deep love for our continent and a shared calling to make a difference. What began as simple explorations of Africa's remote beauty soon turned into an awareness of a deeper need. As we traveled to some of the most breathtaking yet overlooked regions, we encountered communities poor in spirit and lacking in essential resources—often facing both physical and spiritual challenges.
We saw people who were resilient yet struggling, strong yet hindered by a lack of opportunity, and while their needs were many, they had few resources to help them overcome these barriers. We quickly realised that what these communities needed wasn’t just charity, but sustainable, strategic support to become self-sufficient and thrive.
Empowersmith was created to bridge this gap, connecting real needs with the right support. We understand that resources alone are not enough; they need to be applied strategically. Our mission, therefore, is to empower communities by combining essential aid with sustainable skills. Through strategic collaborations with corporations and diverse partners, we provide the tools for transformation, focusing on three core areas: physical provision, skill development, and spiritual encouragement.
​
Our work begins with providing for basic needs, like food and clean water, by digging wells in water-scarce regions and ensuring communities have access to vital necessities. We then move forward with skills training, teaching practical farming techniques and offering vital education in areas that can transform individuals into leaders and sustainers of their communities.
​
At the heart of our mission is a commitment to help communities become independent. We believe that the building of faith is as vital as providing food, water, and skills. By working closely with local leaders and offering holistic training alongside practical resources, we create a foundation that nurtures the whole person, ensuring that each individual can experience growth and dignity.

Empowersmith is more than a nonprofit company; it’s a movement of hope and empowerment. Our dedication to remote and underserved areas of South Africa has shown us that transformation is not just about giving—it’s about building. It’s about equipping communities to lift themselves up, so they can become strong, independent, and self-sustaining. Each donation, each partnership, and each act of support fuels this mission, enabling us to expand our work and reach even more communities in need.
Join us in making a lasting impact. Together, we can empower communities, restore dignity, and cultivate hope for a better tomorrow.
Our Projects for 2025
Zimbabwe Water Project
Zimbabwe is facing one of its worst droughts, leaving millions struggling with hunger and water shortages. Communities are relying on dried-up rivers and walking miles to find water. But we can change that—together.
This isn’t just about fundraising; it’s about bringing life, dignity, and hope.
Our goal is to drill a borehole in Chipinge, Zimbabwe, to provide clean, reliable water. This will transform lives by empowering families, growing crops, and restoring normalcy.
Your donation will:
- Provide Clean Water: Families will save time fetching water and focus on education, farming, and rebuilding.
- Empower Communities: With sustainable water access, farmers can grow crops and improve food security.
- Restore Hope: Clean water means children can go to school well-fed, and families can thrive.
Your support is more than a donation—it’s a gift of hope.
As Proverbs 3:27 reminds us, “Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in your power to act.”
Now is our time to act.
Will you join us in making a lasting difference? Let’s bring life through water to Chipinge, one community at a time.
Malawi Skills Developement
The Malawi Outreach 2025 project is about empowering rural churches, which are often the backbone of their communities. By strengthening these churches, we’re working to uplift entire villages—helping them build resilience and sustainability.
​
Our team will spend three weeks in Malawi, providing much-needed supplies like books and literature, assessing the needs of the different communities, while training spiritual leaders in areas such as community care and sustainable farming. This isn't just about charity—it’s about equipping communities with the tools and knowledge they need for a better, self-sustaining future.
​
Your support can help us make a lasting impact. Together, we can empower these communities to thrive!
Local Outreaches in SA
At Tikvah Feeding Program in Worcester and Ebenhaeser Bread and Soup Kitchen in Elsies River, we're committed to feeding hope into our communities. Every week, Tikvah provides meals to 200 people in Roodewal, a neighborhood struggling with poverty, hunger, and gang violence.
But this is just the beginning—we want to do more.
Our vision is to expand, serve more meals, and create employment opportunities to restore dignity and hope. We also organize an annual career day that connects local graduates with scholarships, changing lives through education.
​
Ebenhaeser in Elsies River, an area ravaged by crime and poverty, also works tirelessly to serve those in need. With your support, we aim to increase the number of meals and empower these communities through sustainable job projects.

Your donations can help us do more—provide more meals, uplift more families, and create lasting change. Help us feed the future and restore dignity, one meal at a time.
