WORKING TOWARDS
UNITING THE NATION THROUGH HERITAGE
Do your part by helping SAHRA to conserve, protect and promote South Africa’s heritage to give our nation’s heritage a future.
Your support plays a vital role in keeping South Africas’s rich heritage alive. SAHRA is the guardian of South Africa’s National Estate, but without on-going care, hard work and management from our core business units, there will be a significant degradation of our incredibly diverse national resources. As a none profit, government agency who is reliant on the fiscus and grants, we rely on your generosity to ensure that as many people as possible enjoy and are exposed to South Africa’s rich heritage.
