About SASSA and the R350 Grant
The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) is responsible for distributing social grants to eligible citizens. These grants provide financial assistance to those in need, including the elderly, disabled, and unemployed.
The R370 Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant was introduced to provide temporary financial support to individuals who are unemployed and do not receive any other form of social grant or unemployment insurance. This grant has been a lifeline for many South Africans, helping them cope with the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
