Who is Die Stigting vir Bemagtiging deur Afrikaans?
Die Stigting vir Bemagtiging deur Afrikaans
Multilingualism is one of the cornerstones of the SBA. That is why the majority of material is also translated so that it can be enjoyed by a larger audience. Our material are also often adapted so that people with reading, hearing and learning disabilities can also benefit from our projects.
The SBA’s symbols:
Heart
Our heart beats for Afrikaans and for the communities we serve.
Hand
The SBA is a helping hand in the communities in which we are involved and likes to join hands with partners who share our vision.
Feet
The SBA is a footprint organisation that goes the extra mile to assist individuals and communities, either through our physical involvement (even in remote communities) or by providing digital tools.
