As part of their overall commitment, the Motsepe Family joined the Giving Pledge, a group of families that have made long term substantial financial commitments to global development. Access to quality education is a central mission of the Foundation, and this is upheld through the distribution of university bursaries to academically deserving students across South Africa who are in financial need, as well as school infrastructure development.

The bursaries, guided by Dr Moloi-Motsepe, are focused in skills areas that are acknowledged to be necessary for the growth of South African and African industries: Science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics STEAM , as well as entrepreneurship, medicine, law and agriculture. The school infrastructure programmes, which operate in high density areas, have constructed ablution facilities, communal gathering spaces, and fully equipped computer and science labs.

She has also published a resource guide, the Little Black for Women, to disseminate vital information on health, education, and economic and legal empowerment to marginalised women. Dr Moloi-Motsepe initiated the job creation and skills development fund through the Foundation. This fund allocates strategic investments toward sectors that show potential for sustainable job creation and assists in alleviating the skills mismatch that has prevented economic mobility for the youth.

Through a partnership with the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship, Dr Moloi-Motsepe advocates for the social and solidarity economy and supports social entrepreneurs through education sponsorships to attend the Harvard Kennedy School.

The Kay Motsepe Schools Cup, which is supported by the Foundation, is the largest schools football tournament in the country and the model is being implemented into other parts of Africa.

Through AFI, Dr Moloi-Motsepe has developed an aggregator platform for creatives on the continent, including designers, writers, photographers and visual artists to explore diverse narratives and contribute to global creative critiques. Through local community-driven partnerships with government departments, religious and faith-based organisations, and kings and traditional leaders, Dr Moloi-Motsepe is able to achieve widespread impact across the more than development forum areas where the Foundation operates.
