<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johannesburg – Internet service provider (ISP) Hypa powered by Vox has announced that it is the first ISP in the country to offer death and disability cover to its customers in the affordable internet market – for free for an entire year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This first of its kind offering follows Hypa’s groundbreaking move in the affordable internet market when it launched its Bela product that includes 30 free voice minutes a month. Now, Hypa customers who are on the 30-day package get free accidental commuter death cover, and accidental disability cover for 365 days.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Made possible by Hypa powered by Vox in collaboration with Infussion Financial Services, a specialist provider that focuses exclusively on the affordable cover market with highly customised offerings, customers now have access to important insurance benefits that provide peace of mind in the event of death or disability.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hypa’s National Sales Manager John Githinji explains. “With every 30-day package a customer between the ages of 18 and 65 purchases, they get free accidental commuter death cover of R25,000. This means if they are tragically killed in an accident on public transport such as a train or bus, the payout will benefit their families at a time of great hardship and financial strain.”</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Githinji explains that in addition to that cover, they also receive accidental death cover to the value of R12,500 and limited accidental disability cover.“</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The benefits are substantial, when one considers that buying insurance cover is often too expensive, leaving people exposed without cover. “Hypa has a mission to give back to the communities we connect, and that is why we carry the full cost of the cover on a monthly basis for up to 12 months as long as the customer is active with Hypa says Githinji.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>At the end of the year, if the customer wishes to continue with the cover, they then contract directly with Infussion Brokers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Vox CEO Jacques du Toit says that Hypa is leading the charge in finding meaningful ways to give back to and engage with communities. “Hypa has seen phenomenal success in areas where there is less disposable income. This is what drives the business, and with the latest development it also means customers can access benefits that protect themselves and their families in the event of a tragic accident or death.”</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Githinji says that getting started is easy, and if someone wants to learn more they can do so by visiting <a href="https://hypa.co.za/insurance/">Insurance - Hypa Fibre</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

In a heartwarming collaboration, Hypa teamed up with Vuma and GogogoGo to honour the dedicated caregivers who participated in the iGOGO programme. This initiative is not just about teaching digital technology skills; it's about empowering Gogos raising children offering digital literacy training and providing tablets to Gogos, ensuring internet access in households. At this goGoGogo event, the Gogos shared their invaluable feedback, showcasing the newfound skills they acquired. From mastering e-hailing services to navigating smartphones with ease, and even assisting grandchildren with homework using Google, the programme's impact resonates deeply. Hypa, recognizing the determination and dedication of these caregivers, extended a helping hand by providing them with tokens of appreciation. Gift vouchers and exclusive Hypa goodies were distributed to commend the Gogos for their commitment to learning and growth. The spirit of generosity continued as a raffle drew excitement among attendees. One fortunate participant was granted a month of free Wifi—a priceless opportunity to further their education and personal development from the comfort of their homes. This collaborative effort between Hypa, Vuma, and goGoGogo is not merely a celebration; it's a testament to the transformative power of community-driven initiatives. Together, we honour the unsung heroes who tirelessly nurture the next generation, ensuring a brighter, more connected future for all.

Introducing Tsoga Mocha Campaign: Empowering Youth, Transforming Communities

We at Hypa collaborated with Operation Fiela, alongside esteemed partners such as the Sol Plaatje Municipality, Frances Baa

We at Hypa collaborated with Operation Fiela, alongside esteemed partners such as the Sol Plaatje Municipality, Frances Baard District Office, Department of Sports, Arts and Culture, and the Home Affairs Department, in the launch of the Tsoga Mocha Campaign. This groundbreaking initiative, which loosely translates to "Wake Young People," took center stage at the vibrant Galeshewe Stadium on June 17, 2023. As a company deeply invested in empowering youth from diverse and aspirational communities, we recognized the urgent need to align with this impactful endeavour. The Tsoga Mocha Campaign seeks to bridge the gap between services and information, bringing them closer to communities where they are most needed. The primary focus of this event was to rejuvenate and empower our youth, especially those who have felt disconnected and marginalized within their communities, often succumbing to the influence of drugs and alcohol. Through a day filled with engaging activities and informative sessions, we aimed to reignite the spirit of our youth and inspire positive transformation. A diverse array of organizations, including Mme Reka Thusa, Pathways to Change, Grassroots Edges, Blade Health and Wellness, Times Fitness Club, and of course, Hypa, seized the opportunity to share their services and valuable insights. Pathways to Change offered voluntary screenings for HIV and tuberculosis, along with other essential health services, contributing to the overall well-being of attendees. The Sol Plaatje Fire-fighting Service took center stage, demonstrating preventive strategies for fire incidents, showcasing techniques for handling burning buildings, and imparting invaluable fire-fighting skills. These demonstrations not only raised awareness but also empowered youth with life-saving knowledge. Amidst these impactful activities, the stage came alive with performances by talented youngsters. Aspiring rappers seized the opportunity to showcase their skills, expressing how their passion for music keeps them engaged, steering them away from the pitfalls of substance abuse. The Tsoga Mocha Campaign stands as a beacon of hope, embodying the collective efforts of our community to uplift and empower our youth. Through collaboration and dedication, we are fostering a culture of positivity and resilience, paving the way for a brighter future. Join us as we continue to champion the cause of our youth, transforming communities one step at a time. Together, we can awaken the potential within every young person, empowering them to thrive and succeed.
