About us
Who we are
Ubuntu provides world-class health and educational support to orphaned and vulnerable children living in the townships of Gqeberha, South Africa. For 26 years, we’ve provided cradle-to-career support for vulnerable children and their families — from prenatal healthcare and education to job-skills training and household stability. Each year, over 2,000 children receive world-class care at our Ubuntu Campus, delivered by a team that’s 95% from the community itself. Many of our graduates have gone on to become teachers, scientists, and community leaders — proof of what’s possible when children have the right support.
Our Team At-a-Glance:
- Founded 20 years ago in 1999
- 100 global staff with 3 in the UK External Relations team
- 2,000 vulnerable children on pathways out of poverty
