The correct title of this article is #Hope4SA. The omission of the # is due to technical restrictions.

#Hope4SA is a South African political party established by John Mathuhle in Bloemfontein in January 2024. ^{[1] [2]}

#Hope4SA is a Christian political party, is anti-abortion, against same-sex marriage, in favour of Christian religious education in state schools and is pro-Israel. ^{[3] [4] [5] [6]}

The party is an offshoot of Time2Rise, which describes itself as a movement, beyond the realm of party politics. Former Chief Justice of South Africa Mogoeng Mogoeng spoke at a Time2Rise event in 2023, stating that he would some day become South Africa's president, without contesting through an electoral process. ^[7]

According to its official manifesto, Hope4SA calls for the establishment of religious courts to adjudicate certain matters according to biblical principles. ^[8]
