The Health Foundation Your strategic partner and trusted platform for partnerships to strengthen public health.

The Health Foundation is an independent, not-for-profit company which mobilises resources and facilitates partnerships for priority projects that aim to improve the quality and patient experience of public health care in the Western Cape. Whether you are a family member grateful for lifesaving treatment given to somebody dear to you, who wants to show your gratitude by giving something back, or a large corporate requiring responsible reporting on the use of your corporate social responsibility funds, the Health Foundation will assist you to make your planned donation a reality. Whether you wish to help by painting a clinic, or by donating a multi-million rand operating theatre, the Health Foundation will enable to make your gift a reality. The process of establishing the Foundation started in 2011, when research identified that there was a great deal of interest among corporates in making donations via a channel which would ensure accountable use of those donations and also visible successes which would be publicly acknowledged. A Memorandum of Incorporation was drawn up, a Section 21 Company registered, and a Board appointed. The Health Foundation is committed to good governance and transparent reporting, as demonstrated by the calibre of its Board of Directors and auditors. Corporates and citizens are invited to support the mission of The Health Foundation and to partner with us in achieving it.

Perfect weather, enthusiastic runners and walkers, with a shared commitment to healthier living set the scene for an energising 5km walk/run.

The WOW Rewards Community App generated great interest, highlighting healthy lifestyle choices.

Congratulations to the Programme team for a successful launch. We look forward to witnessing how this initiative will benefit Western Cape communities.

In honour of Mandela Day and the spirit of giving back, we spent our time at Kwa Nothemba Workshop, recognising the meaningful work they do to empower young people living with disabilities.

As a small gesture of appreciation and support, we donated food parcels and blankets to the organisation.

Kwa Nothemba provides young people living with disabilities with practical and empowering skills, including sewing, woodwork, arts and crafts, and computer skills. Through these programmes, young people are given opportunities to develop their abilities, build confidence and gain skills that can support greater independence.

It was a privilege to spend time with the Kwa Nothemba Workshop community and to recognise the dedication of those who work every day to create opportunities for young people living with disabilities.

Together, we can continue building more inclusive communities where every young person has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

The Health Foundation had the privilege of being part of a meaningful handover of specialised wheelchairs and walkers to beneficiaries with physical impairments at the Adams Family Farm, made possible through the Cape Care Fund initiative.

This was more than a handover. It was a reminder that accessibility is not a privilege but a fundamental human right strongly linked to dignity and that the adequate support can unlock independence, opportunity, and hope.

We are immensely grateful to the Mayor’s Fund for making this initiative possible and to the WC Department of Social Development for their shared commitment to building more inclusive communities.

A special thank you to the Adams Family Farm for the incredible work you continue to do in uplifting and supporting your community.
