Neil and his dear wife Rozanna are the co-directors of City of David Church, Royal Capital and Royal Academy Private Schools in Queenstown South Africa. In 2012, their vision was expanded further with the successful completion of a regional mall with 72 national tenants providing services and much needed Jobs for 1500 local people. Neil’s primary vision is to teach practical economic and biblical principles to empower adults to develop essential skills as responsible citizens, entrepreneurs and business leaders. We are convinced that our effective development and economic model could be duplicated and expand into the rest of Africa. This includes local beneficiation of commodities, infrastructural development, education, poverty alleviation and humanitarian projects. During the past eight years, we have established successful operations and network in 8 countries namely: Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Ghana, Sierra Leone, DRC Congo, Uganda, Botswana and Kenya. The experience gained at grassroots level with governments, rural and urban communities are invaluable. We believe that our experience over the last 30 Years will give us the needed impetus within SADC RISE to create a platform to turn dreams into reality.
