Sassa manages social grants and allowances for groups in South African society needing assistance. This includes grants for children, the older persons grants and disability grants.
SASSA also manages the R370 grant (It was originally R350) for the special relief of distress which started during the Covid-19 crisis but has now become semi-permanent.
SASSA payments are made in various ways. They can be paid through a bank account, through your SASSA card, or through CashSend. Your SASSA grant is there to assist you with your basic needs.
