Arise has it’s home in Heideveld.  This tiny suburb sandwiched in the middle of some of the most notorious Cape Flats neighbourhoods:  Manenberg, Nyanga, Bonteheuwel, Gugulethu, Hanover Park and Vanguard.

At Arise, we believe that every child deserves to be raised in a thriving family; and we work tirelessly in two ways to achieve this. Firstly, we work with existing families in resource poor communities to build resilience and deepen connections through our strength-based approach and group interventions.  Secondly, we advocate strongly for those children who do not have families to be placed in families through adoption.
