Education and unemployment are two of the greatest challenges in South Africa today. The H.O.P.E. Foundation, with its focus on underdeveloped communities, aims to address these key areas.
The H.O.P.E. Foundation is a registered non-profit organisation that provides aid to underdeveloped communities in the province of the Eastern Cape, South Africa.
What do we do?
The Foundation's current programmes can be divided into three categories:
job creation, education/school assistance and community building.
Job Creation Programmes
The Zwide Craft Project.
This project is an urban skills development programme which aims to develop craft skills amongst
unemployed people in informal and poor settlements in the Nelson Mandela Metropole.
Traditional beading craft, fabric painting, fabric printing, sewing and quilting skills are taught.
We focus on designs with an African motive.
Items made in our workshops are sold at local and overseas craft markets.
