Stay informed. Save lives. Spread the word, join our WhatsApp network.
At Missing Persons South Africa, our mission is to reunite missing loved ones with their families as quickly as possible. One of the most effective tools we use is WhatsApp — a fast, direct, and widely accessible platform that allows us to send alerts instantly to thousands of people across the country.
Every second counts when someone goes missing. By joining our WhatsApp network, you can receive real-time alerts and help share them with your own contacts, groups, and communities. Together, we can make sure no missing person’s story goes unseen.
Why WhatsApp is a Powerful Tool for Missing Person Alerts
When a person disappears, time is critical. Sharing their details quickly with as many people as possible increases the chances of a safe return. WhatsApp allows:
- Instant Delivery – Alerts go directly to your phone in seconds.
- Easy Sharing – With one tap, you can forward alerts to other groups or contacts.
- Nationwide Reach – Our network extends across provinces, helping information travel far and fast.
- Real-time Updates – We can post follow-ups when a person is found or if new information becomes available.
How to Join Our WhatsApp Groups
We have created two separate WhatsApp channels to make the process more effective and organized.
1. Missing Persons Alert Channel
This group is for official alerts only. Here, you will receive verified information about missing persons, including photographs, names, last known locations, and any relevant updates.
- No spam or unrelated posts — only important alerts from our admin team.
- Ideal for people who want to stay informed without group chatter.

2. WhatsApp Share Army Group (Volunteer Sharing)
This is our dedicated team of volunteers who help spread missing person alerts far and wide.
- Members receive the same alerts as the main group but are encouraged to share them in other WhatsApp groups, community chats, and with friends and family.
- This group plays a key role in reaching people in smaller towns, rural areas, and regions where social media coverage is limited.

Our WhatsApp Group Rules
To keep the network effective and safe, please follow these guidelines:
- Do not post unrelated content — only share official alerts or relevant updates.
- Protect privacy — never share personal information about missing persons beyond the details provided by our admin team.
- No chain messages or advertisements — these slow down the alert process.
- Report any suspicious messages directly to the admin.
Failure to follow the rules may result in removal from the group.
Why Your Participation Matters
Every alert you receive could be the one that brings someone home. Even if you don’t personally know the missing person, your willingness to share their information could place it in front of the right person at the right time.
Our statistics show that many recoveries happen because a passerby, shop owner, taxi driver, or community member recognized a face from an alert they received on WhatsApp. You could be that vital link.
How You Can Help Beyond WhatsApp
- Follow us on social media for wider updates.
- Encourage friends and family to join our WhatsApp network.
- Report any sightings or relevant information immediately to the numbers provided in each alert.
The more people connected to our system, the stronger our network becomes.
