OUR OBJECTS
Zuka is colloquial for the 5c coin. South Africa no longer mints these coins since 31 March 2012. Subsequently, most people do not see nor attach any value to these coins, although they are still legal tender.
We are quick to point out that using crowd funding, collecting one 5c coin from each individual in a stadium full of people can result in a substantial amount to be used as an economic driver. Using this principle, Zuka's objective is to be a social enterprise that assists communities to change their perceptions and mindset so as to be able to see and unlock potential value in resources deemed as waste or worthless, and use these for wealth creation. |

Zuka is growing rapidly and is currently involved in projects linked with the sustainable growth of communities in South Africa. For more information, click below.
