Philosophy
With their hands and eyes, the people of Philippi are discovering originality, purity and pleasure amongst what has always seemed to be drabness and despair. Doing things for yourself, alongside your friends and family, is the most powerful motivator.
Located at the bottom of social and economic levels in one of the world’s most unequal societies, South Africa’s deprived communities lack:
- Access to development capital
- Intangible start-up resources
- Technical and entrepreneurial education
Our chosen solutions; to kick-start self help we are helping communities to gain
- Entrepreneurial training
- Exposure to agricultural science and career opportunities
- Practical experience and upskilling with ‘own’ vineyards, designed to provide world-class raw material for premium wines
- Enabling each school community to play important roles in vineyard establishment and maintenance
