		<description>Good Things Guy and #SAINC have partnered to bring you another exciting season of good news stories!

#SAINC is about changing conversations – from the dinner table to the shebeen, from dusty street corners to gym cafeterias. It’s about shaking off the doom and gloom and sharing the real news that doesn’t reach the headlines. 

#SAINC tells stories about South Africa’s most progressive, innovative and switched-on brands, that are placing people at the centre of their vision and have committed to the ethos of profit-with-purpose and the pursuit of inclusive, sustainable business growth.</description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hollard, a leading insurance company, launched a campaign called “Big Ads for Small Business” to support small businesses hit hardest by the COVID-19 pandemic. <br />
<br />
The innovative campaign involved giving away Hollard’s own ad space to these businesses, boosting their visibility and increasing their revenue.<br />
<br />
Twelve small businesses were chosen for the campaign from 300 submissions. Hollard’s team conducted a thorough vetting process to ensure that the chosen businesses could handle the increased attention from the ads. The campaign’s objective was to ensure each business’s growth while amplifying Hollard’s brand as a company committed to creating better futures.<br />
<br />
And we were lucky enough to chat with Joanna Monden, head of Group Brand, to tell us more about How Hollard’s purpose-led marketing has created better futures for local SMEs.<br />

		<description><![CDATA[From a humble family-owned business to an African powerhouse with 110 stores and over 13,000 team members, Builders has been instrumental in uplifting local businesses and communities. Partnerships like the one with Beck Trading showcase this commitment. Starting as a small factory producing personal protective clothing in 1992, Beck Trading now has 28 products and employs about 1800 people across two factories, thanks to Builders‘ support.<br />

Another success story is Zoko Building Supplies, founded by Norma Ledford and her late husband. Builders’ open credit account and material assistance have enabled Zoko to take on bigger projects and grow their business, fostering economic opportunities in the local community.<br />

Beyond empowering local businesses, Builders also partners with Hope Worldwide, an international NGO focusing on early childhood development centres.
