Coffee for a cause

The Fabiani Café activation forms part of the Fabiani brand’s Corporate Social Investment (CSI) initiative, with 100% of proceeds going to their NGO partners, reflecting their commitment to creating meaningful opportunities for young South Africans while supporting communities facing food insecurity.

At the heart of the initiative are graduates of The Sozo Foundation’s Barista Training Programme, who gain valuable hands-on experience by operating the café throughout the activation. The programme equips young people with industry-recognised skills, helping bridge the gap between training and meaningful employment.

Additionally, through its partnership with FoodForward SA, Fabiani also contributes to addressing food
insecurity by supporting initiatives that provide nutritious meals to vulnerable communities
across South Africa.
