Morgan Diale Awards
Celebrating the grassroots changemakers of South Africa
Honouring the Faithful, Not Just the Famous
Whilst traditional awards celebrate celebrity, the Morgan Diale Awards recognise the true heartbeat of our society.
The musicians, artists, community builders, and spiritual servants who transform lives every single day.
Our Vision
Recognition
A vibrant South Africa where every grassroots changemaker is seen and celebrated
Support
Real resources and funding for those doing the real work on the ground
Amplification
Leveraging social media to turn local heroes into community legends
Three Critical Gaps We're Closing
1
The Celebrity Gap
Media spotlights a tiny elite whilst millions of dedicated grassroots workers go unnoticed
2
The Funding Gap
Community builders lack access to the micro-funding (R5,000-R20,000) that could transform their impact
3
The Recognition Gap
Without acknowledgement, burnout spreads and morale crumbles amongst our most faithful servants
A Bottom-Up Revolution
Community Nomination
Social media campaigns source nominations directly from those who know these heroes best
Crowd-Sourced Funding
We pool small contributions to create meaningful awards—turning likes into legacies
Dignified Celebration
High-quality events that restore pride and honour to our changemakers
