National Empowerment Fund

The National Empowerment Fund (NEF) is a South African organization dedicated to promoting economic transformation by providing financial support and business development services to historically disadvantaged individuals and communities. Its goal is to foster inclusive growth by helping entrepreneurs and small businesses gain access to funding, mentorship, and resources. The NEF seeks to empower previously marginalized groups, particularly Black South Africans, enabling them to participate more fully in the economy, create jobs, and develop sustainable enterprises that contribute to national development and economic equality.
