About the Fudumala School Jersey Drive
Warmth, dignity, and community, one jersey at a time.
Our Purpose
The Fudumala School Jersey Drive exists to provide school jerseys to learners in need and restore their sense of dignity. A warm jersey is more than clothing. It is a signal that someone cares, that a child belongs, and that learning can happen without the distraction of cold.

Early Beginnings
The Fudumala School Jersey Drive started as a community initiative to address the need for school jerseys among learners in Tembisa. The first jerseys were distributed through grassroots efforts and local partnerships.

Breakthrough Year
With the Sandvik corporate partnership, the Fudumala School Jersey Drive delivered 570 jerseys across 12 schools in Tembisa. This was the campaign's biggest year and proved the model could scale with the right support.

Growing Our Reach
In 2025, we impacted the lives of 262 learners. We also extended our reach to the Eastern Cape, where we donated 109 Fudumala packs in partnership with Standard Bank Transaction Banking. This year proved that the warmth can travel beyond Tembisa.
