Welcome! Nice to meet you.

Roy Harris’s passion for business and philanthropy began at a very young age. In 1990, while visiting a church member in a mental health hospital ward in Cape Town, South Africa, he felt compelled to make a difference. This drive led him to launch and grow numerous projects in South Africa, where his impactful work as a social and business entrepreneur soon attracted media coverage, including features in newspapers, radio talk shows, and television.

Today, Roy permanently resides in Tampa, Florida, USA, where he manages his South African foundations and businesses, as well as his foundations and businesses in Tampa, all from his Tampa office. His nonprofits in South Africa and Florida primarily focus on mental health, education, real estate, infrastructure, and capital procurement and development. In 2021, he celebrated 30 years of founding and successfully operating various nonprofits in South Africa and, more recently, in the USA, continuing his commitment to supporting communities through mental health services, educational initiatives, and development projects.

In March 2025, Roy looks forward to opening SLOW… Or On-The-Go™ Café, a new flagship café that will mark a significant step in his career. This café will be distinct from his long-established conference center and restaurant in Cape Town, offering a fresh concept and high-quality experience in Clearwater, Florida. Alongside SLOW… Or On-The-Go™ Café, SLOW… Or On-The-Go™ Travel will serve as an exciting extension of his vision, strengthening the finances of his foundation and expanding his commitment to service and community impact.
