Abstract	The nature and level of activity among U.S. private sector groups seeking to expand educational opportunities for black South Africans is examined. The Information Exchange of the Institute of International Education (South African Programs) did research on such categories of organizations as foundations, church groups, educational institutions, corporations, and professional associations. The survey consists of (1) an analysis of U.S. professional association activity geared to assisting black South Africans and to educating U.S. constituencies about South Africa and (2) database entries describing the work of each organization. The inventory lists and describes in detail the participating organizations. Initiative categories are academic support; black labor union development; bursaries (for students inside South Africa); detainee assistance; education in the United States about South Africa; emergency relief; fellowships; health; human rights; internships; leadership development; research; scholarships (for students studying in the United States); legal education/representation; teacher training; and women. Survey findings indicate that there is significant potential for cooperation due to the high level of activity of professional associations. (SM)
