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.
