A Nation That Recognized Us
Our Duty to Prove Ourselves
That changed with President Donald J. Trump’s Executive Order, which recognized the injustice faced by many in South Africa and extended an unprecedented opportunity: a future in the United States, built on work, contribution, and service.
The Amerikaner Foundation was created as a direct response—to ensure that those who seek a new beginning in America can integrate successfully, become economically self-sufficient, and contribute meaningfully to their new homeland.
We are not refugees seeking handouts. We are workers, innovators, and builders. And we will prove that we deserve the faith that has been placed in us.
Who Are Amerikaners?
“Amerikaners” are South Africans—regardless of ethnicity—who seek to build a new life in the United States through hard work, self-reliance, and a commitment to civic duty.
This includes those who have experienced economic, political, or legal discrimination, as well as any South African who aligns with the principles of liberty, meritocracy, and national service.
Amerikaners do not come seeking assistance; we come to work, to build, and to contribute to the nation that has recognized us.
Mission
“To empower and uplift Amerikaners—South Africans seeking a future in the United States—by fostering economic self-sufficiency, leadership, and civic duty. We do not seek handouts; we seek to create, serve, and lead.
Through enterprise, education, and national service, we will prove that our presence strengthens not just our community, but the United States as a whole. By giving back tenfold, we honor the nation that has welcomed us and secure a lasting future for generations to come.”
Vision
“To build a self-reliant, service-driven Amerikaner community that excels in enterprise, education, and national contribution. Our goal is not only to thrive but to ensure that America thrives because of our presence.
We envision a future where Amerikaners are known not just for their resilience but for their unwavering commitment to their new homeland. By leading in business, civic service, and cultural integration, we will forge a future built on excellence, trust, and shared prosperity.”
The Three Pillars of Amerikaner Success
Economic Independence
“Amerikaners are not job seekers—we are job creators. Through structured funding, mentorship, and business networking, we empower families to establish businesses, secure employment, and contribute to the economy from the moment they arrive.”
Civic Duty & Service
“True integration is not just about living in a new country—it is about serving, protecting, and contributing to the nation that has welcomed us.” From local government roles to first responders and military service, Amerikaners are committed to giving back in the most meaningful way possible.
Education & Excellence
“A future built on skill, merit, and achievement.” Through scholarships, vocational training, and professional certification support, we help ensure that every Amerikaner can reach their full potential—and strengthen the industries and communities they become part of.
Core Values
Independence & Innovation
We believe in creating opportunities rather than taking them. Every member of our community is empowered to build their own success, ensuring economic resilience and growth.
We approach challenges with innovation, adaptability, and a problem-solving mindset—qualities that define innovators, entrepreneurs, and leaders.
Duty & Service
We honor the trust placed in us by actively serving in business, civil service, and the military. Amerikaners contribute to public safety, local governance, and national defense as a way of giving back to the country that gave us a future.
Integrity & Accountability
We operate with transparency, responsibility, and ethical leadership. Whether in business, government, or community-building, we hold ourselves to the highest standard—our reputation is built on actions, not words.
We stand by the principle that every action we take must benefit not just us, but the communities we integrate into.
Heritage & Integration
While we honor our South African heritage, we embrace our new American identity with pride. We recognize that true success means fully participating in American life—socially, economically, and civically.
Cultural preservation does not mean isolation. It means sharing our history, learning from others, and contributing to the diverse and dynamic society that has welcomed us.
Amerikaners come from diverse backgrounds, but we are united by shared values of perseverance, industry, and civic responsibility. Our strength is not just in where we come from, but in what we build together in our new homeland.
Excellence & Impact
We do not seek survival—we seek to excel, lead, and uplift. We strive for academic, professional, and civic excellence, ensuring that Amerikaners become known for their work ethic, reliability, and high standards.
Amerikaners will not just integrate—we will set the standard for what successful integration looks like.
Commitment to Giving Back Tenfold
The Amerikaner Foundation is built on the principle that a nation that welcomes us deserves our absolute best in return.
- We will create more jobs than we take.
- We will serve, protect, and strengthen the communities we join.
- We will excel in business, government, education, and public service.
- We will honor America by upholding the values that make it great.
This is our covenant of honor, our pledge of purpose, and our commitment to proving beyond all doubt that Amerikaners belong, contribute, and lead.
