Welcome to Limpopo Rise


Welcome to the Rise Limpopo home. We hope you will enjoy your stay.
This initiative is to show what has been neglected in the past, the capability of the province and also to reposition it as a province that is vibrant and alive with possibilities. Not neglecting to celebrate people in Limpopo who are making a difference and representing well. This website will also celebrate people from Limpopo who have contributed positively in whatever spheres they are in and for people born or bred in Limpopo who might have settled somewhere else but continue to hold the flag high.
