WiPSA Johannesburg Breakfast Gathering

Dear WiPSA community,

We are back—with a fresh date, a fabulous new venue, and the same great energy!

After having to hit pause on our March 31st meet-up, we’re thrilled to invite you to our first in-person Women in Philanthropy South Africa (WiPSA) event of the year in Johannesburg. We appreciate your patient understanding with the postponement of this event.

This time, we are bringing the conversation to life at Investec INVESTEC SANDTON: 100 Grayston Drive – the home of Investec Private Wealth.

We are gathering to share, connect, and reflect on the evolving world of philanthropy—especially how women-led initiatives are shaping resilient and sustainable financial models.

Theme: Grounded Giving: Financially Resilient Models for Sustainable Philanthropy

New Date: Thursday, 22 May 2025 | ?? 09:00 AM

New Venue: INVESTEC – SANDTON,100 Grayston Drive, Johannesburg

Ticket price : R230

We look forward to exploring how women-led micro-entrepreneurs are building impact in tough economic environments and how our collective strategies can drive local giving that truly lasts.

Special Guest Speaker: Robyn Whittaker – Africa Voices Dialogue

We also want to hear from you! If you’re leading or supporting a community-rooted, financially creative initiative, we would love for you to come prepared to speak about your approaches to financial sustainability in challenging economic environments. Should you be able to share your lived experience in five (5) minutes, send a one-sentence response to [email protected] with:

• Your name
• Organisation or company
• Area of focus
• How you are approaching financial sustainability

Let’s gather, grow, and give—together.

With warmth,

The WiPSA Johannesburg Team
