PUBLIC PROFILE

Who are we?

The uMephi Project is the children's division of the AFM Executive Welfare Council. The AFM Welfare Council is one of South Africa's most successful and long-standing welfare organizations with a proud history. It all started in 1938 when the first two orphans were left at the front door of Pastor Gerrie Wessels in Brixton. He took the initiative and the church started a Children's Home.
