ABOUT

The Hope Foundation is an NPO which was founded in 2001. The aim of the Hope Foundation is to reach out to victims of rape, child abuse, domestic abuse and human trafficking. We also aim to offer support to the families of the terminally ill and to the families of single parent households.

​

Not only do we provide counselling to survivors, we also provide their families with support and counselling. Many of our volunteers have come out of similar situations and now channel their energies into helping others who face battles in their own lives.

​

We believe in turning tragedy into triumph

​

We believe in Purpose and we make every effort to help survivors and their families, Triumph.
