We work primarily with the & Beyond Foundation in Southern and East Africa and with The Angus Gillis Foundation in the Eastern Cape, providing funding for, and facilitating these projects.

"Africa Foundation’s concern and care for the communities they serve is obvious as is the quality of all t hose associated with the Foundation. They become personally involved in the projects and the communities themselves. Because of The Africa Foundation, we are personally committed to participating and involving others in self-sustained programmes for the communities for as long as we are financially and physically able."
