About Us

Our Story

Since its founding in 1991 by a passionate church minister, Roy Harris, Help Your Neighbour (HYN) has remained unwavering in its commitment to making a positive impact on society. With almost two decades of dedicated service and a devoted team of over 100 full-time employees, HYN continues to blaze a trail in the realm of groundbreaking, effective social projects.

Our Legacy

Over the past three decades, we've established a diverse array of partner projects and successful business initiatives, all without significant government support. At the heart of our enduring success is the visionary leadership of Roy Harris, bolstered by a team of capable directors, managers, staff, and dedicated volunteers. Together, we stay at the forefront of addressing the unique social needs of various special interest groups in our community.

Our Commitment

Notably, our expertise has even led us to collaborate on an ad hoc basis with the Department of Health (Western Cape, South Africa), where we've played a vital role in building the capacity of non-profit organizations.

Our Values

HYN is not just a registered Non-Profit Organization (NPO); we are also a proud part of the Kingdom Ministries Trust Group. We emphasize an inclusive approach, welcoming individuals from all walks of life, without regard to religion, race, gender, or any other criteria. Our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of those we serve, regardless of their background or beliefs.
