Support for Charities

Our Mission

The FW de Klerk Foundation is a non-profit organisation funded solely by private public and corporate donations. The Foundation has a small operating budget and is therefore unable to fund other organisations or projects. However, from time to time we receive limited funding from overseas organisations for distribution to local organisations that support special needs children in particular.

The Foundation does not fund:

Individuals (assistance for medical care, study, scholarships, etc.)

Conferences, seminars or symposiums, nor do we fund travel thereto or attendance thereof

Fundraising events (breakfasts, dinners, etc.)

With over R2 million donated over the past 5 years

The FW de Klerk Foundation International Donor Support Programme

Main Mission

The Donor Support Programme was launched as a useful service to friends of South Africa who want to help the country address some of its most pressing problems. The Foundation assists international donors by identifying NGOs with proven track records, negotiating with implementing agencies and channeling payments. Donors receive regular progress reports and the Foundation does not charge for these services.

Elita de Klerk, Trustee and wife of former president FW de Klerk, is patron of the FW de Klerk Foundation International Donor Support Programme. For more information, or to make a donation, contact us on +27 21 930 3622, or send an email to info@fwdeklerk.org.
