Get Involved

One of the most rewarding experiences in life can be to make a difference to someone else's life. If you would like to contribute to any of the projects listed below please don't hesitate to get in touch with us. Your help could empower the Xhosa people to take their future into their own hands and to develop this unique culture and coast line in an ethical and eco-friendly way.

Scholarships: One of the simplest ways to ensure a better world for our children is to contribute to the education of children. The public schools in our area are not of a very high standard. Through the Mdumbi Education Center we are able to spot outstanding students and like to offer them scholarships to better schools in Mthatha or East London and for futher education. Please consider suporting this program with a small monthly donation.

Education Project:
Here in the Transkei exists a great need for quality education which can give the local people the chance to improve their prospects in the employment market. Besides teaching English we have also set up a small computer center. Offering training in all common basic office and financial software. In the future we would like to establish and teach more specialist software, such as, graphics, music and animation.

Come and teach to make a difference. Educational material is available but we are open for suggestions such as writing new course syllabus for block seminars and ongoing classes.

Investing in holistic projects with a profitable future:
We are looking for investors and sponsors for the Education Center, to establish a furniture and drum factory, a seafood restaurant and tourism/cultural village.

Helping to write proposals and raise funding:
For all our projects we continually write proposals as they evolve and expand over time. If you are skilled in writing proposals and fund raising, we would be very grateful for any help and advice from here or wherever you are based in the world.
