Founded in 2017, Manati Alternate Student Funding was established to address the student funding crisis in South Africa, particularly for the "missing middle" - students who are not poor enough to qualify for government funding but whose families cannot afford tertiary education. The company operates as a product of Manati Capital (Pty) Ltd, a registered credit provider. Its mission is to offer a sustainable funding model that evaluates students on their academic merit and future potential, thereby enabling access to higher education for a broader range of deserving individuals.
