Who We Are

Who We Are

Founded by Arnav Dasrath, Linking Arms is a non-profit Trust dedicated to transforming the lives of learners who come from disadvantaged backgrounds in South Africa.

The Trust shall strive to provide scholars with the tools to attain their potential through partnership with other organisations, individuals and sponsors who share similar aims and objectives.

Our Objective

The principal objective of the Trust is to give hope and build capacity amongst poor and or vulnerable scholars by providing them with basic necessities that will empower them to make positive strides in their scholastic journey. The provision of an opportunity to create such change in the beneficiaries lives will be obtained by:

  • Enabling children to escape hunger through feeding programs at public schools
  • Providing educational resources, equipment, stationary and uniforms,
  • Providing for the payment of school fees, awards, scholarship or bursaries,
  • Upskilling and empowering scholars by providing tutors/mentors to assist with techniques to overcome academic and personal challenges,
  • Providing educational enrichment, academic support, supplementary tuition or outreach programs for the poor and needy.
