Who We Are
CDT Foundation NPC (CDTF) is an ecumenical loan fund dedicated to providing affordable loans at low interest rates to Christian churches and organisations for property transactions.
Over Four Decades of Experience in Property Financing
With over 40 years of experience, CDTF has a proven track record of evaluating, funding, and successfully managing projects. We are committed to helping Christian churches and organisations secure the funding they need for property acquisitions and development.
Our Growth Vision
In line with our new vision, CDTF is responding to the growing societal need for early childhood development (ECD).
Our goal is not only to support the establishment of ECD facilities but also to ensure that these facilities can serve as dual-purpose spaces, providing a nurturing environment for children while also serving as places of worship for Christian communities.
In Loving Memory
Allan Wentzel
24 February 1939 – 19 July 2026
Founder, CDT Foundation NPC
It is with deep sadness that the Board and staff of CDT Foundation mark the passing of our founder, Allan Wentzel, who went to be with the Lord on 19 July 2026.
Allan gave his life to serving those in need. Driven by his love for Christ, he founded CDT Foundation in 1979 with a simple conviction: that churches are at the heart of their communities, and that helping them build and care for their homes of worship strengthens everyone they serve. For over four decades, that conviction has helped congregations across South Africa buy, build and repair the places where they worship, gather and reach out to their neighbours.
Those who worked with Allan will remember his generosity, his quiet determination and his gift for encouraging others. He saw needs before others did, and he gave freely of his time, wisdom and faith.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to his wife June, his family and all who loved him. The work he began continues, and we remain committed to carrying it forward in the same spirit of faith and service.
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."
– 2 Timothy 4:7
