The Government of South Africa is giving underprivileged people who are genuinely in need of welfare assistance grants to help make ends meet. The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) is providing The Social Relief of Distress Grant (SRD Grant) for people who were severely affected by Covid-19 & are now in a state of poverty with no other source of revenue and aid.
SASSA covers care dependency, child support, disability, war veterans, elderly people, foster children, and the R350 grant (also known as the SRD grant). These payments are given to millions of people every month, and you can apply for the SRD grant at srd.sassa.gov.za or through WhatsApp at 082 046 8553.
