Partners: Tree of Life Foundation

The Tree of Life Foundation, a registered Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) in South Africa, is a shareholder of THINK.CAPITAL.

The Tree of Life Foundation’s mission is to build a substantial “endowment fund” from which qualifying charities in South Africa and Africa can be supported on a sustainable and predictable basis. In their experience, charities often find it difficult to do long-term strategic planning or to commit to longer-term projects, simply because their funding tends to be sporadic and short-term in nature. While they do use some of the donations they receive to support charities (guideline of up to 25% of donations), the bulk is invested to generate returns from which they can provide sustainable support. The Tree of Life Foundation has made good progress and during their first 8 years of existence the compounded annual growth rate of the investment portfolio was more than 70%.
