Our Story

Foundation & History

The Eric Antwi Foundation was established in 2023 by Eric Antwi (Founder), Nomzamo Vukeka, and Thamsanqa Siyabonga Mchunu, driven by a passionate vision to create lasting change in underserved communities. The foundation's inception was inspired by Eric Antwi's personal experiences and a deep-seated belief in the power of education and community support as key drivers for development.

Since its founding, the Eric Antwi Foundation has grown from a single focus on community development into a multi-pronged organization. Early programs centered on scholarships and educational resources for underprivileged children, before expanding into vocational training and adult education. Looking ahead, the foundation plans to broaden its scope further — addressing health, economic empowerment, and environmental sustainability needs across the communities it serves.
