As the Acting Executive Director of the UKZN Foundation, I am honoured to acknowledge the profound impact our donors have had on the lives of our students and the broader university community during the 2023 financial year. Your contributions have been instrumental in advancing our mission to maintain a university that is relevant both locally and globally.
The Importance of Third-Stream Income
Third-stream income is vital for UKZN, providing essential funding that supports areas beyond what traditional funding sources can cover. Without this crucial financial support, the university would struggle to fulfil its commitments to excellence in education and research. Your generosity has enabled us to meet these needs and continue our growth and innovation.

Global and Local Impact
Donor support has not only enhanced our local relevance but has also positioned UKZN as a significant player on the global stage. Contributions have facilitated international partnerships, student and faculty exchanges and global research collaborations, ensuring our graduates are equipped with the skills and perspectives needed in a globalised world.
Looking Forward
As we look to the future, we are committed to building on these achievements by expanding our donor base and exploring new avenues for fundraising. Your continued support is crucial to our mission and will enable us to further our impact.
Thank you for your unwavering support and dedication. Together, we are making a lasting difference in the lives of our students and the broader community.
