Mergon Foundation

Overview

Mergon Foundation is a not-for-profit trust fund that was established in 1980, following a commitment made by Francois van Niekerk to God as he turned to Him for a lifeline in business.

The vision is to see God’s Kingdom expand, to see people discipled into living relationships with God and assimilated into faith communities. To this purpose they allocate financial and human capital to ministry partners across Africa and the Middle East, enabling them to greater multiply their Kingdom impact
