About Cape Kids Foundation

It began in 2017 with 4 like-minded friends determined to make a meaningful impact in young people's lives.

We started by getting involved with community-based projects and donating to grass-root charities yet over time we realized that to

'ensure greater financial success and emotional well-being for determined yet under-served young people'

we needed to create a truly holistic wrap-around programme.

​

Over the past 6 years we have built a team of 24 full-time and staff members who support our high school students and our tertiary students as mentors, counselors, tutors, life advisors, transport managers, nutrition providers,

health care coordinators or dorm parents.

​

Cape Kids Foundation is a trauma-aware organisation - all the CKF staff have been trained on the effects that trauma has on the lives of young people as the physical and emotional safety of each student is paramount.
