[This is a Jew-loving, globalist, the richest of the Whites, or as the Americans would say a Shabos Goy … a traitor to his race. This guy is no friend of the Whites of SA. He's always playing games right at the very top. The Rupert Family HATED Hendrik Verwoerd. Jan]

Johann Rupert is well known as one of South Africa’s most successful businessmen who regularly appears on international rich lists, but his tremendous philanthropic and charity work does not enjoy the same exposure.

He has been the highest individual taxpayer in South Africa for the past 20 years, which helps the government to fund social development and other projects.

The Rupert family has a long history of helping South African businesses, educational institutions, educational programmes, and environmental causes.

When President Cyril Ramaphosa announced a nationwide lockdown in March 2020, the Rupert family supported local businesses with a R1-billion relief package.

Before this, in 2019, Rupert and his wife Gaynor presented 132 full title deeds to residents from Kaya Mandi, Klapmuts, Kylemore, Franschhoek, and Le Roux townships.

This was only a small part of the 1,000 title deeds in Stellenbosch and 1,000 in Graff Reinet, which they had already sponsored.

The Rupert family has also pledged a further 10,000 titles through the Khaya Lam initiative.
Love for sport

Johann Rupert’s deep love for sport has resulted in his and his family’s support of many initiatives in this field.

Rupert founded the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, which funds 65 projects globally with the goal of using sport to tackle social issues.

He also co-founded the Sports Science Institute with his friends Morne du Plessis and Tim Noakes.

Rupert also recognised the necessity of initiating golf development in South Africa, leading to the formation of the South African golf development board of which he is the largest donor.

Rupert, like his father Anton, is a committed conservationist. Anton Rupert helped to establish the South African operations of the World Wide Fund for Nature and was involved in the National Parks Trust of South Africa.

Johann Rupert serves as the chairman of the Peace Parks Foundation and conserves 25,000 hectares in the Graaff Reinet area. He is also a trustee of the National Parks Trust.

Additionally, Rupert and his family have supported the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund, the SA College for Tourism, and Ikamva Labantu.

All this charitable work is, however, only a tiny part of the philanthropic endeavours of the Rupert family.

To appreciate the value Johann Rupert adds to South Africa outside of his business interests, one must look at all the causes he has supported in recent years.

The table below provides an overview of the institutions Johann Rupert, and his family have supported over the last five years.

The second table shows the educational projects and programmes the Johann & Gaynor Rupert Foundation support.
