At CFL we anticipate and look forward to the future. We have
come a long way since we were first established in 1995, yet our vision and
commitment to the work that we do is still as strong as ever. In other to reach
out even more to the communities around us we are currently working on various projects.

At present we are researching and collating the necessary
details for opening another office at the East Rand in Johannesburg.Conquest For Life have found a house in ReigerPark, Boksburg
and will officially move in during May 2007. Various Companies in the East of
Johannesburg have given us support as well as Brentwood Kolisa
and the SA Employers Guild. Conquest For Life is
always in contact with the Department of Public Works for space at the old CID
Office in Commissioner Street,
Boksburg. We are awaiting their response

Another area that we looking at is
the Northern Cape.
Conquest For Life is in the process of talking to one
of our partners in Jeffrey’s Bay. Negotiations should be completed by the end
of February 2007.
Conquest For Life is also in the
process of expanding to America
and the UK.
Since 2006, we are talking to various friends, partners, funders
and like minded people about the work of Conquest For
Life. We were under the impression that things will go quicker and easier in
the US and the UK but it is a
different ball game. During the next few months we will be further talking to
our friends in the US and
the UK.
