Projects
SANCA works across South Africa to prevent substance abuse, support recovery, and strengthen communities. Through a network of national and local programmes, we tackle addiction from every angle — from early prevention to treatment and reintegration.
Explore some of our key projects below:
Lesedi Solar Park Trust
SANCA National hosted the Lesedi Solar Park awards event with 65 tainees and over 20 NPOs, CBOs, DSD and DOH on the 27 June 2025.
“Kick Your Habit” Campaign
Once a year, South Africans are invited to give up a personal habit — like caffeine, sugar, or social media — for a week. This national challenge encourages people to walk in the shoes of someone struggling with addiction.
Our goal: To build empathy, reduce stigma, and start national conversations about substance use, recovery, and support.
I Love Alex – Responsible Beverage Services (RBS) Programme
In partnership with the I Love Alex initiative and the AB InBev Foundation, SANCA helps liquor traders in Alexandra Township promote responsible alcohol sales and consumption. We provide training, compliance support, and community education to prevent underage and binge drinking.
Our goal: To reduce alcohol-related harm, create safer communities, and establish a model for responsible trading that can be expanded across South Africa.
