Building Love in Africa

For no particular reason at all on this particular day of February 14, we here in Cape Town are feeling a little sentimental.

We'd like to take a moment to celebrate our love for building in Africa where our commitment to Football for Hope began in 2008. It was love at first sight. Architecture meets health promotion meets peace building meets anti-discrimination meets football. A baby was born and we couldn't be more proud to see how she's grown over the years.

Here's a little album we put together to capture some of those special moments, and our love, while building on a continent that can't be summed up in one word. Africa.
