The Bathurst Development Trust

The Bathurst Development Trust (BDT) is a community-led and charitably funded organisation that strives to provide the people of Bathurst, Nolukhanyo and surrounding areas with the resources, skills, and assistance they need to break the cycle of poverty and uplift the area as a whole.

Projects funded by the trust focus primarily on sustainable community upliftment programmes, and tourism initiatives (this being the largest contributor to the area’s economy).
