"Through this partnership, we'll be able to extend the reach of the initiative, creating greater access to essential healthcare for children and communities who need it most," the foundation wrote in its announcement.

The Black Coffee Foundation was established in 2010 by acclaimed DJ and producer Black Coffee, with a focus on building sustainable opportunities and uplifting communities across South Africa. The Gift of Sight initiative is one of its most impactful programmes, addressing a healthcare gap that disproportionately affects children in remote areas.
