Flame Lily Foundation

The Flame Lily Foundation (FLF) comprises branches in areas where there is a concentration of members. Each branch has its own name and identity, but all operate under a common constitution for the Flame Lily Foundation, incorporating the Rhodesia Association of South Africa (RASA). Each branch has a Managing Committee which runs the affairs of the branch. These include social activities, welfare assistance, fund-raising events and publication of a newsletter for their members.

Cape Town has many important historic links with Rhodesia. The Founder of Rhodesia, Cecil John Rhodes, was also Prime Minister of the Cape, and we are blessed by Kirstenbosch Gardens and the Groote Schuur Estate which the Founder gifted to the people of the Cape, along with Rhodes Memorial which the people of the Cape erected to his memory, and Rhodes Cottage where CJR passed away.

Barely a mile away from Rhodes Cottage is Saint James hotel, where the last Prime Minister of Rhodesia, Ian Douglas Smith, passed away.

We also have a famous statue of Cecil John Rhodes in the Gardens of Cape Town. 

In this volatile age of Rhodes Must Fall cancel culture, arson attacks and pulling down of historic monuments, Flame Lily Foundation- Cape of Good Hope has had the privilege of Standing up and articulating the case for CJR at public meetings, on radio programs, TV programs and in interviews and Letters to the Editor of local community newspapers and overseas magazines.

We have also been involved in mobilizing manpower for several work parties in helping to repair, clean up and preserve Rhodes Memorial and support Rhodes Cottage events.

These initiatives were reported on in local community newspapers.
