Gifts and donations received from philanthropies and friends of WSU go a long way towards making up the shortfall in state funding that all universities currently face. Therefore, your gift and support are important to us in achieving academic excellence.

In 2021, under the leadership of Songca, the university embarked on a full renewal initiative to modernise its facilities and ensure that students have access to state-of-the-art resources. Much has been achieved but a lot still needs to be done, for example WSU’s Library facilities need improvements to align with modern student needs, including compliance with needs of those with special needs.

With lot of WSU’s focus having been on improving teaching and learning infrastructure, the WSU recreational facilities, especially as it relates to sports and student wellness, has not received similar attention in terms of funding priorities. We call upon Philanthropists, Foundations & other institutions to Partner with us to address these so that our students can enjoy great facilities.

As a technology infused African University, strategically positioned in the rural Eastern Cape, WSU services largely students from disadvantaged and needy backgrounds. Student debt, has been and continues to be a sustainability factor for WSU.

Help us through your generous giving, to be in a position to attend to the urgent high student debt clearing so that the WSU can continue to serve this geographical Eastern Cape area!

This campaign aims to address the alarming issue of food insecurity faced by many of our students who are stranded due to funding challenges, with some facing loss of funding. We provide them with food parcels to ensure no student goes hungry. Join
