A LITTLE SNIPPET ABOUT US
Socially Empowered VA was born from two simple but powerful beliefs: that great support changes everything, and that business can be a force for good.


Co-founded by Candice and Rocinie, SEVA grew out of lived experience on both sides of the support relationship. Together, they saw the same gap again and again: impact driven founders drowning in the day-to-day, unable to focus on the work only they can do. SEVA was built to close that gap, not just with capable hands, but with values-aligned support that actually fits the way mission-led businesses operate.
Support that serves a bigger purpose
To connect purpose-led entrepreneurs and leaders with skilled, values-aligned virtual assistants so they can reclaim their time, scale their impact, and lead without burnout.
Business as a force for good
A world where ethical business support is accessible and sustainable, and creates ripple effects beyond the businesses we serve. Every placement we make supports a skilled professional and puts a donation into a community that needs it.

HOW WE SHOW UP
We partner with founders who are building something that matters. That drives every decision we make.
We take the time to understand your business, your culture, and your working style so the support actually sticks.
From our pricing to our placement process, we operate with transparency and integrity. No hidden fees, no shortcuts.
Every package includes a monthly donation to a local NGO. Supporting your business is also how we support the wider world.
We help you build systems and structures that last, because great work happens when people are not overwhelmed.
We work with big heart leaders and entrepreneurs who think differently. We take the time to understand how you work best, and we build support around that, not the other way around.

What makes us different
We believe everyone deserves an opportunity. Our VA recruitment is inclusive and skills-based, without judgement. We hire for capability, character, and commitment, and we welcome people from all walks of life into our community.
On the client side, we know that leaders who think differently often need support that is flexible, patient, and genuinely curious about how they operate. We show up ready to learn, adapt, and get it right for you.
We support NGOs focused on education access and invest in upskilling our VA community to build lasting professional capability.
We actively champion economic empowerment for women by building a fairly paid, professionally structured environment for our VAs.
We create dignified, flexible employment while helping small businesses grow sustainably and without burnout.
Our ethical placement model and inclusive hiring practice are built to redistribute opportunity, not just fill roles.
SEVA is built on collaboration between founders, VAs, and communities. Our NGO partnerships are a direct expression of this goal.

Candice is a social entrepreneur and dedicated volunteer originally from Zimbabwe, shaped by a strong belief that opportunity can transform lives. This perspective has guided her work across community initiatives, governance, and impact-driven projects.
She currently sits on 2 boards, contributing strategic insight and leadership across a diverse range of organisations. Alongside her governance roles, Candice leads a busy and purpose driven life, balancing multiple responsibilities while continuing to champion growth, sustainability, and meaningful impact.
As the co founder she is creating the structure needed to scale impact, streamline operations, and provide high quality support that allows leaders to focus on growth while maintaining clarity, balance, and effectiveness across their commitments.


Rocinie did not start as a business owner. She began her career by supporting other people’s dreams.
With a background in corporate insurance and a degree in Business Management, she eventually made the leap into freelancing, driven by a desire to help small businesses grow. What started with one client quickly evolved into a career working alongside business coaches, entrepreneurs, and small business owners across systems, administration, website management, social media, course creation, podcast editing, and retreat management.
Every business she supported opened her eyes to what was possible. Over time, one quiet question became impossible to ignore: What if she built something of her own?
That question became the foundation of Socially Empowered VA, a business created not only to support clients, but to help them reclaim their time and amplify their mission through smart, soulful support.
