The Gumboots Foundation works to make a positive impact to South African communities who struggle each day for a better future. By supporting community projects together with local leadership, Gumboots helps change the life chances of some of the country’s poorest people.
The Gumboots Foundation Goals:
To empower children through education, both formal and informal, whilst also ensuring that their basic needs are met by providing food, shelter, healthcare and recreation.
To strengthen and support local home grown projects with local leadership and to secure a sustainable long term solution.
To help strengthen local communities both through financial assistance and by fostering a mutual understanding.
To provide individuals and organizations with an opportunity to be directly involved financially and personally in community development projects.
To provide honest and informative feedback on the progress of the projects and transparency on the use of donor money.
To seek partnership rather than dependency, with the focus being to uplift all involved through building relationships between donors, Gumboots and beneficiaries.
