Awaken the Soul of Africa inculcates and reaffirms values that have been lost along the way; values of tolerance, respect, honour and dignity. The primary goal of this project is to inform and educate South Africans about the primary need for a community driven renaissance of values and culture. We received funding in 2007 and again in 2008. This project was conducted in partnership with faith-based organizations and the South African Police Service. Find out more about this project.
