Help Us Launch in Kayamandi
We're piloting our community safety model in Kayamandi, Stellenbosch. Your contribution directly funds this proof of concept.
A crisis hiding in plain sight
Most South Africans live in fear.
Not somewhere distant. Not someone else's problem. Right here. Right now. In the townships that are the beating heart of this country.
This is not someone else's problem.
Township crime doesn't stop at the township boundary. It bleeds into every suburb, every school run, every business, every life in this country. What happens in Kayamandi matters to Constantia. What happens in Soweto matters to Sandton.
We are one nation, and we are all paying the price.
That's why we stand behind TAPP — the Township Alerting & Protection Platform. A non-profit. 100% focused. No politics. No bureaucracy. Just technology, private security, drones, and a desperately needed proof of concept in Kayamandi.
This is not charity. This is an investment in a South Africa where more than 80% of its people can finally feel safe walking to school, walking home, walking anywhere.
“Most South Africans live in fear. This is our shot at trying to change that.”
Choose to act.
If you believe township crime is a crisis for all of us — help TAPP prove that it can be stopped. Every rand counts. Every contribution brings Kayamandi — and every township after it — one step closer to safety.

Technology, private security and drones building practical safety solutions.
Sustainable Impact
Our model is designed to be self-sustaining, creating lasting change.
“Life in the townships is dangerous. There is not a day that goes by without somebody being stabbed or assaulted. And violence is carried out of the townships in the white living areas. People are afraid to walk alone in the streets after dark. Housebreakings and robberies are increasing.”
