Vitamin Angels invites applications from eligible organisations for its Micronutrients Program for pregnant women in South Africa, an opportunity to receive a donation of multiple micronutrient supplements for pregnancy.
Vitamin Angels helps at-risk populations in need – specifically pregnant women, – gain access to lifesaving and life changing vitamins and minerals. This is accomplished by providing annual, renewable micronutrient grants to qualified non-governmental or community-based organisations – our Field Partners – who want to incorporate micronutrient distribution into their existing services.
Vitamin Angels micronutrient grants are in-kind donations only; no cash is provided.
The organisation provides:
- Multivitamins for pregnant women to support foetal growth and thereby reduce neonatal and infant mortality
Eligibility Criteria

- Must be registered as a locally recognised entity (i.e. non-governmental organisation, clinic, faith-based organisation, civil-society organisation, etc.)
