We are a social enterprise founded to uplift and transform lives. Why? Because we, ourselves, have first handedly experienced how the housing problem and lack of quality affordable housing affects all areas of life. Thus, we are able to better understand the needs of our clients.
“I was denied becoming a civil engineer, a dream that I had hoped to achieve because my mother spent most of her income on rent after my dad passed on,” says Anne Rweyora, the CEO of Smart Havens Africa. “My co-founder, Will Broad, also struggled a lot, often being on the streets to get food for his family and money to pay his school fees as well as rent.”
We understand the powerful impact adequate shelter has on a family and how greatly it can improve quality of life.
