Through the FACET Foundation, we work with local partners to develop targeted programmes designed to improve standards of health, education and well-being. In doing so, we aim to make a fundamental difference to communities in southern Africa.Since establishing the Foundation in 2008, we have made a tangible impact with programmes in Lesotho, Botswana and South Africa; with further help from your donations, the situation can only continue to improve.
