Amy Biehl was a gifted and dynamic young woman committed to making a difference in South Africa.

After extensive work and service throughout the continent, she chose to dedicate her 1993 Fulbright Scholarship to the establishment of a multiracial democracy in this country.

Amy worked tirelessly
with members of the ANC, at the UWC Community Law Centre, and helped register voters for the country’s first free elections.

On August 25th, 1993, Amy Biehl’s life was tragically cut short in an act of political mob violence in the Guguletu Township outside of Cape Town.

Four young men were convicted and sentenced to 18 years imprisonment for her murder.

The Amy Biehl Foundation (ABF) is a non-profit organisation based in Cape Town whose programmes are designed to develop and empower youth in the townships and contribute to community building efforts as a mechanism to reduce the levels of crime and violence in these areas and aims to give them opportunities to become future leaders and entrepreneurs in society
