Amandla Omoya Trust

Amandla Omoya Trust This Community Trust has an effective ownership of six percent of Jeffreys Bay Wind Farm (RF) Following this, Trustees were appointed in 2015.

The Amandla Omoya Trust is a Community Trust whose main purpose is to carry out public benefit activities within a 50 kilometre radius of Jeffreys Bay Wind Farm. The Trust provides funding and resources to organisations which are engaged in building resilience and improving social cohesion in the surrounding communities that include, but are not limited to Jeffreys Bay, Humansdorp, Hankey, Patensi

e and Thornhill. Whilst the Trust was formed in 2012, construction of the Jeffreys Bay Wind Farm was completed and commenced with operations in 2014. The purpose of the Amandla Omoya Trust is to strengthen communities to be able to better manage social inequalities, whilst enabling access and funding to programmes that improve the standard and quality of life, of all people, in the targeted communities. The Trust partners with organisations that boost social development and unity as well as assist in the advancement of disadvantaged communities. The South African governmentโ€™s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Programme, requires a local ownership of 2.5%, making the Amandla Omoya Trust 6% ownership significantly higher than the governmentโ€™s minimum threshold.

For many families affected by the recent floods, the disaster arrived with little warning but left a lasting impact. Homes were damaged, belongings were lost and daily routines were disrupted as rising waters forced some residents to seek shelter and others to confront the difficult reality of starting over.๐ŸŒง๏ธ๐Ÿ 

In the aftermath of the flooding, families faced more than just the loss of property. Many were left without adequate bedding, food, hygiene essentials and other necessities, while uncertainty about the days ahead added to the emotional strain already being felt across affected communities. ๐Ÿ’”

Recognising the urgency of the situation, Amandla Omoya Trust and Masikhathalelaneni joined forces to provide immediate humanitarian support to families in need. Working alongside community leaders and local stakeholders, teams visited affected areas, assessed the extent of the damage and identified households requiring urgent assistance.

Relief efforts focused on meeting the most pressing needs of affected residents. Food supplies, blankets, mattresses, hygiene packs, baby care products and other essential items were distributed to help families cope with the immediate effects of the disaster. While these items provided practical support, they also offered comfort and reassurance to people navigating a difficult and uncertain period.

The response was carried out under challenging circumstances. Widespread needs across communities and the pressure to reach vulnerable households quickly required coordinated action and strong partnerships. Despite these challenges, teams remained committed to ensuring that assistance reached those who needed it most. ๐Ÿšš

For many residents, the support represented more than emergency relief. It was a reminder that they had not been forgotten and that help was available during one of the most difficult moments they had faced. The intervention helped restore a measure of dignity and hope to families working to recover from the impact of the floods.

The response also highlighted the power of collaboration. Through the combined efforts of Amandla Omoya Trust, Masikhathalelaneni, community leaders, volunteers, donors and local stakeholders, meaningful support was delivered when it was needed most.

What a meaningful day spent connecting, collaborating and planning for the future. Trustees from the Sibona Ilanga Trust, Letsatsi Borutho Trust and the Amandla Omoya Trust met for their annual combined meeting on Tuesday 2 June 2026 at the Jeffreys Bay Wind Farm.๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’š

Surrounded by the iconic wind turbines, the meeting created space for thoughtful discussions, shared learning and aligning on the work that continues to make a difference in our communities. Beyond the boardroom conversations, there was also time to capture the moment with a special photoshoot, celebrating the people behind the purpose.

Thank you to our trustees for your passion, leadership and commitment. Days like these remind us that real impact is built through strong partnerships and a shared vision.โœจ
