10: Doing Good at Scale with Leana de Beer (Feenix)

Leana de Beer is the CEO of the Feenix Group - a non-profit and a social enterprise focusing on education finance in South Africa.

As a response to #feesmustfall, Leana and her team founded a non-profit to address the lack of funding for education in South Africa. Over the last 6 years, Feenix has raised over R170 million for tertiary education students in South Africa. If that wasn't impact enough, they also launched WaFunda, an EduTech platform training and supporting young South Africans. 

Eitan and Leana sat down to discuss Leana's journey, the state of education in South Africa and the solutions to fix it, and building a non-profit like a technology company.
