About

Our vision is of a South Africa where young people are educated and able to lead.

We believe in the power education has to raise a child out of poverty and enable them to lead healthy, successful lives. Access to quality education in South Africa is a massive problem and we at the Bishop Simeon Trust are working to change that.

We desire change at both macro and micro levels. South Africa's education system is in need of drastic change on a national scale and we will advocate and support those individuals and organisations speaking out and working for that change. This however, takes time and everyday thousands of vulnerable young people fall through cracks. Therefore, in the short term, we collaborate with local partners to provide programmes and services that target the most vulnerable, putting support in place that enables them to succeed.
