our cause
Raise the Children International (RTC) is a non-profit organization with one simple aim: to radically change the lives of South African orphans through quality education, empowering them to become thriving servant-leaders poised to transform their communities and country.
We want to make sure that every child without parents finds a loving community and receives quality education that leads to employment & in turn, a freedom that will allow them to give back to others in the future.
There are approximately 1.1 million 18 year old's in South Africa today
More than 50% of them drop out of high school
Only one out of three 18 year old's graduate from high school
Only 11% of them qualify for a bachelor's degree
