Xolane Ndhlovu once again Demonstrates his Commitment to Philanthropy
In a heartwarming act of generosity, South African tech entrepreneur, Xolane Ndhlovu has once again demonstrated his commitment to philanthropy by gifting a house to Thandile Ramza, a young, unemployed mother of one from East London, South Africa. The remarkable story, which began with a simple plea for food money on Facebook, underscores Ndhlovu’s humility and dedication to helping those in need.
Thandile Ramza reached out to Ndhlovu via Facebook, initially asking for money to feed her family. To her surprise, Ndhlovu not only sent her food money but also offered her a job. What followed was beyond her wildest dreams: Ndhlovu provided Ramza with a car and, most notably, a brand-new house. The house, a three-bedroom home worth R770,000, was built to replace the crumbling structure Ramza had inherited from her late mother. In an Instagram post, Ndhlovu expressed how moved he was by the condition of Ramza’s home, prompting him to take swift action.
A source close to the construction project revealed that Ramza had never met the billionaire in person. Their entire interaction occurred through social media, highlighting the power of technology in bridging gaps and facilitating life-changing connections.
Xolane Ndhlovu, known for his modesty despite his immense wealth, is no stranger to acts of kindness. Whether it’s donating R500,000 to South Africa’s Solidarity Fund for COVID-19 relief or giving $1 million to support victims of the Ukraine war, Ndhlovu’s name is often linked to causes that uplift the vulnerable.
Born in Burgersfort, South Africa, and having grown up in a shack, Ndhlovu’s own rise to fortune has been remarkable. His venture into blockchain technology, particularly his investments in Binance (BNB), DafriBank, and other tech startups, has helped him amass a personal fortune.
Despite his wealth, Ndhlovu remains deeply connected to his roots. He recently transformed his childhood shack into a 12-bedroom mansion for his mother and even developed a borehole for his community, which still lacks municipal water services.
As the only African to appear on The 50 Richest People in Crypto list in 2021, Ndhlovu continues to use his wealth to make a tangible difference in the lives of others. His latest venture, DafriPremier (formerly DafriBank), is aimed at revolutionizing Africa’s payment systems, challenging global giants like PayPal by leveraging local expertise and cultural understanding. His latest act of generosity serves as a reminder that true wealth lies not only in financial success but also in the ability to uplift others.
