Since the president declared COVID-19 a national disaster on March 15, he announced measures that would help suppress the spread of coronavirus and its economic impact, one of those measures was the solidarity fund.
“We have set up a solidarity fund, which South Africans businesses, organisations and individuals and members of the international community, can contribute to. The fund will focus efforts to combat the spread of the virus, help us track the spread, care for those who are ill and support those whose lives are disrupted, Ramaphosa said.
