Founded in 2012, the Safer South Africa Foundation is a registered non-profit company that exists to mobilise under-resourced communities and society at large, to build awareness and ability to work together in promoting community safety, security and community well-being. The Foundation fosters a better understanding of community safety issues and improves relationships between the community and law enforcement agencies. In addition to its work with communities, the Foundation seeks to actively contribute to the national discourse on crime and community safety matters by undertaking research, advocacy and campaigns.
