Who We Are

We are a group of business professionals and community and church leaders that use our skills, experience and wisdom to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate than us.

Our Vision

Our vision is to see people freed from poverty and hopelessness, and living transformed lives because they now realize there is a better way and they are empowered to create better lives for themselves.

Our Strategy

Our strategy is to deliver direct training, as well as empower trusted leaders to deliver our programs that address both personal and professional development. We help break through socio-economic barriers, fostering growth in life, purpose, mindset, and skills.

Our Theory of Change

We do not believe in providing temporary solutions, such as financial handouts to deeprooted systemic problems. In order to accomplish change on a large scale, we believe in mobilising the following:

Churches by empowering and equipping them to deliver business workshops and play their part in the development and transformation of their communities.

Schools by giving them the tools and resources needed to reach students while they are still young and impressionable enough to form good habits and avoid falling into the cycle of poverty many of their parents and relatives have endured.

Individuals & micro-entrepreneurs by delivering training directly to anyone wanting to become resilient to the stresses of life and build a better future for themselves.

Our Origins

Ubuntu Mission was founded in 2006 with one vision: drive economic growth and social change.

We started with one country, South Africa and one approach. Since then, we have uncovered a greater need for financial and business education all over the globe. Even in countries or communities that would normally not be considered at risk, there are people in need, unemployed and would-be micro-entrepreneurs who struggle to find economic opportunities and provide for their families.

We have evolved into a non-profit focused on empowering local church and school leaders, to deliver business training and skills to those within the communities they serve. With a growing network of trusted partners capable of administering our programs we can expand our reach.

It's so wonderful to be with this family. Where have you guys been all my life? I thank God for bringing us together. Thank you so much.
