Our Chief Executive Officer

Bridget Sibanyoni

Publishing Professional | Editor | Content Writer | Proofreader, based in Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa.

Bridget Sibanyoni is Grant Africa's author and the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of ZamZom (Pty) Ltd. She is a publishing professional, editor, content writer and proofreader based in Pretoria, Gauteng. She holds a Bachelor of Information Science in Publishing from the University of Pretoria (2020-2023), and she has worked as a freelance content writer since January 2019, which is more than seven years of writing for readers online. She also works as a private tutor, and from February 2025 to January 2026 she completed a publishing internship at Sabinet. Her skills include content management systems (CMS) and project management.

Bridget founded ZamZom in 2020 and has run the company ever since. What began as her own writing and publishing work has grown, under her leadership, into a digital solutions company that builds websites, creates content, runs marketing and advertising, and carries out research for South African businesses, organisations and communities.

Founder of Grant Africa

In 2026, Bridget launched GrantAfrica.co.za, ZamZom (Pty) Ltd's flagship publishing platform, and she writes its content herself. On Grant Africa she writes free guides and news for SASSA beneficiaries and for South Africans who depend on government grants and welfare programmes: SASSA status check guides, payment date guides and step-by-step explainers for every grant type, including the SRD R370 grant.

At Grant Africa, Bridget writes in plain language, because a guide only helps if the person reading it can act on it the first time. She works alongside researcher Danford Tafadzwa Chibvongodze on every topic, and every guide she writes is fact-checked by editor Robynn Hera and approved by manager Lindelwa Mzolo before it is published. Every guide follows official SASSA sources.
