African Diaspora Hope (ADHOPE)

About us

African Diaspora Hope (ADHOPE) is a well established multi-discipline non governmental organization (NGO). ADHOPE started in 2008 with the aim of supporting all African nationals including African foreign nationals living in South Africa. Initially the objective was to focus on HIV/AIDS and empowerment as there is very little support for African foreign nationals living in South Africa. This support includes counselling, home visit, children and orphan support, education, foods distribution and material necessities. Later our focus has also widened to include other types of support e.g.: Education to local laws to help enable a person to gain suitable employment or even starting their own small business.

The organization aims to promote and enhance the quality of life of the underprivileged African nationals including African foreign nationals infected and affected with HIV/AIDS and other chronic diseases, in the spirit of UBUNTU.

Our mission is to apply an integrated health care services by partnering with public sector, private sector and communities in order to propel the Government strategy of early intervention and prevention of HIV / AIDS and other chronic diseases.

• To provide care and counselling of African nationals including African foreign nationals living in South Africa, by helping them to integrate and contribute positively in the economy growth.
• To raise social awareness by identifying and sensitizing target groups with high exposures and high incidence of HIV/AIDS, on the risks / dangers, not only to their health but the impact on their loved ones / family and the community at large.
