Annelie Fouché

Annelie Fouché joined Petra Institute in 2020 as Coordinator: Digital Marketing in a freelancing capacity. She manages all of our social media (content, design and management) and other digital marketing efforts, including research and consultation.

Working in close collaboration with Laetitia Bull (Coordinator: Communication), she was responsible for spearheading the project management, content curation and launch of our new website.

Says Annelie about Petra Institute:

"Petra Institute is an organisation that is very close to my heart. Many people won't ever have the privilege to know about the global ripple effect impact they have had on churches, schools and other communities where children are involved.

Each staff member and facilitator's heart for children and 'building communities where children are welcome' is intricately woven into their DNA. This is not just something they 'do', it's who they are at the very core of their being because, to them, this is a calling.

If you are a church, community or organisation trying to find ways to: facilitate healthy, relational relationships between adults and children (within families and communities); include children in your ministry or church or NGO, or even how to walk with wounded children, this is the place to be!

I salute you, Petra Institute! The fact that you've been going since 1989 is a testament to the Lord's provision and blessing on your NPC. I pray that He will take you from strength to strength."

Annelie lives in Stellenbosch with her husband, Francois and three boys: Reuben, Gideon and Sion.
