The Story Behind Nedbank Innovation Hub

Partnering with Nedbank to launch our first Corporate Sponsored Innovation Hub was a major milestone for the team at Uncommon.org.

Our mission all along has been to be a sustainable nonprofit that impacts lives at scale. To do this, we have developed various revenue streams to help generate funds outside of the typical donations and grants, corporate sponsorship being one of them.

When it comes to Corporate Social Responsibility, our goal is for our partners to feel like they are making an investment more than a donation. While it will always be philanthropy, we see the value in meeting businesses where they are, and find win-win situations to be the most sustainable. To ensure a solid ROD (Return on Donation), we put together a curated Marketing & PR strategy to help share the uncommon, Nedbank story

While the details of the sponsorship are confidential and vary for each of our partners, you can read a bit more about the nature of the agreement and the benefits to Nedbank in this blog post.

Thank you, Nedbank, for joining us in this mission to empower our beneficiaries with technology education and employment opportunities! Together, we can do so much!

Today the Vincent Bohlen Innovation Hub was pleased to host a surprise visit from Ms. Etona Ekole, UNICEF Country Director, and her delegation. The group was directed to our facility by Mr. Masuku, the Headmaster of Chamabondo Primary School, who recognized the Hub as a key center for student development. During their visit, the delegation received a comprehensive tour and viewed a selection of student projects, with Ms. Ekole showing keen interest in our mission and the students' innovative work.

The visit served as a significant validation of our efforts and the potential of our students. The delegates were highly engaged, and the students presented their projects with remarkable professionalism.
