Baviaans Growth Initiative

We are a grassroots organisation rooted in the Baviaanskloof community, committed to building a more sustainable and empowered future. Our vision is simple: a vibrant, resilient community where everyone – especially young people – has the chance to thrive and shape a better tomorrow.

In a region facing real socio-economic challenges, we put youth at the heart of our work. We see youth development as a powerful tool for change – strengthening communication, building resilience, and opening new doors for learning, skills development and entrepreneurship.

Right now, we’re running three core programmes:

• Education and ECD: Supporting better learning outcomes through tutoring and early childhood development;
• Communication and business development: Empowering young people with the tools and skills to connect, create and grow new economic opportunities;
• Sport and nutrition: Promoting health, teamwork and community spirit through sports and food support.
