Mission
The South Africa Development Fund (SADF), formerly known as Fund for a Free South Africa, was established in 1985 by exiles living in the United States to help bring attention and an end to South Africa's apartheid system and to reverse its political and social impact. Today SADF provides grants to community-based organizations committed to non-sexist, non-racial, democratic practices and which address human rights through health, education, economic development, environmental justice and democracy-building. SADF uses its grantmaking to focus on the needs of the most disadvantaged sectors of South Africa: women, children, rural people, unemployed, residents of informal settlements, elderly and disabled. To date, SADF has sent over nine million dollars in grants to organizations in South Africa.
