"With the work we do for our Non-Profit - whatever we promote is free. For our For-Profit - everything is charged. That way, we're sustainable and we’re always able to ‘do good.'" - Christine Taphel #YourImpact

"It makes sense to build in a 'For-Profit' aspect in order to be sustainable. Often, donors will want to have a say in what is done with donations. It’s empowering to have your own money to do what you want to do to 'do good'" - Acanda Jaswa #YourImpact

"Greenwashing is real because it’s topical, and everyone wants to look good. But if people are doing real, good work, you will be able to find out." - Acanda Jaswa #YourImpact

"Define for yourself what purpose-driven work is; it looks different for everybody. Find a company that has a net-positive effect on your environment. Once you've defined it - be flexible as it will look different in different seasons of your life." - Parting advice Acanda Jaswa

"Start where you are; don’t wait for perfect conditions. I started knowing people were in need of underwear. Even if it’s just one person, you’re changing a life, you're changing a generation" - Parting advice, yeukai chideya

"It’s okay if you don’t know your purpose. Be intentional about being in conversation with forward-thinkers, and visionaries. Don’t be too hard on yourself, but surround yourself with dreamers." Parting advice, Christine Taphel

At our Beyond the Bottom Line event, Adele Kruger Taljaard shared this powerful insight on what it means to make a real difference. It's not just about grand gestures—sometimes, it's about recognising potential and creating space for others to thrive. #ImpactEvent

#AcandaJaswa reminded us that while profit is necessary, it shouldn't be the only focus. Balancing profit with purpose is key to building sustainable and ethical businesses that truly make a difference. 💬 What are your thoughts? How do you balance profit with purpose?
