The Foundation is able to award a small number of capacity grants each year. These are designed to help build organisational capacity, and may include support for professional development, leadership skills and information technology.

One such capacity building initiative is an annual half-scholarship for the Leader’s Institute of SA, Governors Leadership Foundation program. This ten-month program offers immersive experiences alongside fellow participants from diverse backgrounds, where leaders can develop leadership knowledge, lasting connections and deep awareness essential to effect genuine and widespread positive change. Applications to be made direct through Leader’s Institute.
