About Us

The Robin Hood Foundation was born from one simple act of kindness in 2005. Founder Cindy Norcott and friends filled over 60 baby bags with their babies’ outgrown clothes and delivered them to new moms in need. That spark grew into a movement.

By 2007 we became a registered NPO, and since then, with the help of volunteers and donors, we’ve delivered hundreds of thousands of food parcels, hampers, school uniforms, and blankets across KwaZulu-Natal.

What drives us? Dignity, love, and community.
What sustains us? People like you!
