The Purpose of the David Rattray Foundation

To further the cause of reconciliation between the peoples of South Africa by promoting discussion through historical and political lectures, nationally and internationally, and to raise funds through these and by any other appropriate means, for locally-based upliftment projects specifically in the areas of education and health in Northern KwaZulu-Natal.

Following on-site visits by Board members and consultation with community leaders it was decided to commence with development of three local schools; electrifying one, building a library at another and building three classrooms at a third school. The first two of these projects have been completed on time within budget and the third is due for completion soon. The Foundation work is done by pro-bono volunteers with the result that overheads have been reduced to the minimum required for administration.

The Foundation and its assets are managed in a Section 21 Company and Community Trust governed by a Board of Directors and Trustees.
