The NLDTF has donated a record amount of R33,006,687.00 to NICRO, the National Institute for Crime prevention and the Reintegration of Offenders.

NICRO wishes to acknowledge the fact that the NLDTF has been a prominent donor since its inception.

The Executive Director of NICRO, Soraya Solomon, expressed immense joy and gratitude for the invaluable support and funding it has received from the National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund. Ms Solomon is optimistic that this benchmark NLDTF donation will set a new trend for Corporate Social Investment in South Africa.

Currently only 2% of the CSI budget in South Africa is earmarked for crime prevention, which is not a true reflection of the needs of the country. Crime prevention has been on the backburner for too long and needs urgent support from business and corporate companies. Therefore it is a historical feat that the NLDTF has decided to give back so generously to the country and its people where it is needed most.

The NLDTF donation of R33,006,687.00  will empower NICRO to proceed with its mission and to ensure the crucial expansion of its excellent crime prevention services.

NICRO commends the NLDTF for their generous contribution towards our mission of securing a safe South Africa!
