The H.O.P.E Foundation currently supports diverse social and cultural initiatives. Our partnership with “Karos and Kambro”, a performing arts initiative , focus on our vulnerable youth whilst our school programs in the Cango Valley and Katatara attends to the needs of these empoverished rural communities.

The H.O.P.E. Foundation focuses most of its conservation initiatives on projects within the Swartberg Mountains, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Operating from the “Ou Tol” buildings (Swartberg Pass) we are eager to commence our conservation programmes to ensure this World Heritage Site is appreciated by our current generation & preserved for future generations.
