About Us

RGO was established in 2008.

Raising Giants Organisation (RGO) was etablished as a non-profit entity in 2008 and it was registered officially in 2010. The organisation mentors young people from environments with social challenges to rise above their circumstances and work towards becoming successful leaders of their communities

Each and every child is born with an unlimited dose of potential, unfortunately most children in South Africa, are born in those conditions that are difficult to break through from, conditions that only say to them that "they can't" or "they will never". RGO exists for those kids, letting them know "they can" and "they will".

Our Mission

  • To produce leaders and self sufficient young people from socially challenged communities
  • To eradicate the effects of social economic challenges, single-parent households, and substance abuse, by being there for these children and becoming the support structure in their lives

Future RGO

  • RGO aims to create its own centre which will grow to promote innovation, entrepreneurship and computer training
  • The organisation will also be able to temporarily house Giants who find themselves homeless due to challenges which we have seen in the past
