CSI for Public Schools South Africa
At Qualibooks, we are committed to driving meaningful change in public schools across South Africa through Corporate Social Investment (CSI). By partnering with businesses and organizations, we facilitate impactful initiatives that enhance learning environments, provide essential resources, and empower educators and students.
Why Invest in CSI for Public Schools?
South Africa’s public education system faces various challenges, including limited access to quality learning materials, under-resourced libraries, and a lack of infrastructure support. Through targeted CSI initiatives, corporates can bridge these gaps, fostering a brighter future for learners. Investing in education not only uplifts communities but also contributes to the country’s long-term economic and social development.
Our CSI Initiatives for Public Schools
Qualibooks specializes in education-focused CSI projects designed to improve literacy, numeracy, and overall academic performance. Our key initiatives include:
- Library Development and Book Donations
We help establish and enhance school libraries by providing books, educational resources, and digital learning tools. Access to a well-stocked library promotes a culture of reading and lifelong learning.
- Classroom and Learning Resource Support
We supply schools with essential learning materials, such as textbooks, workbooks, and teacher guides, ensuring that both educators and students have the tools they need to succeed.
- Infrastructure and Facilities Enhancement
Our CSI projects also focus on improving school environments by assisting in classroom refurbishments, building safe learning spaces, and upgrading school facilities to create conducive learning environments.

Incorporating technology into education is essential in today’s world. We support schools with e-learning solutions, digital libraries, and interactive educational content to promote 21st-century skills.

In South Africa, we recognise the fact that literacy levels are not what they should be.
This is primarily due to a lack of access to quality library resources.

almost 86% are under resourced, having little or no library resources
and/or no librarians.
