Prójekt Ubuntu Community Projects A community based volunteer programme; and educational space - teaching & advocating Ubuntu consciousness

Ubuntu = I am; Because
you are " humanity"

Our work at Projekt Ubuntu -
Projekt Ubuntu ( or Pro – Jekt your “humanity” ) was started after the xenophobia in 2007, where we realised that we needed to keep a space alive in South Africa, to heal the injustices of the past and to continue to bring people together, to build the South Africa that Mandela dreamt of. Through volunteerism, we are able to practically bring people together, from diff

erent communities and different countries around the world – to learn from one another and to develop our human values and potential together. ( the principal of ubuntu – I am a person, because you are ) Through our projects, we are able to facilitate a process where young people can develop themselves, through service to others. Many young people from priviledged backgrounds, have the education and resources; but not necessarily, the life experience. Poorer community may not have the education and resources, but one can learn through life experience and the wisdom that is there. We find in matching individual skills and people to projects, we are able to assist the projects with much needed resources and in turn offer a space to young volunteers, where they can develop themselves as better people, discovering new depths to their skills, creativity and potential. We work with a hand up rather than a hand out approach, which means – we support the people that are leading in their communities, that have the knowledge and the know-how and wisdom to solve their own challenges – they often just like the right support and resource to do what they need to do. Through our volunteering process at Projekt Ubuntu, we are really able to propel people’s dreams forward and really make a meaningful difference. When volunteers arrive, we meet and discuss skills and what they wish to do and achieve, we then place each person, at a project where they are best able to share and develop themselves. Our projects work mostly with vulnerable children in the communities of Ocean View and Masiphumelele. So at Projekt Ubuntu, you will have an opportunity to use your initiative and to work alongside a community, you will learn from the children and from their carers, you will learn about the African culture and community development. It is truly a wonderful experience, of growth all round for everybody.

Thank you so much to all the Grannies and Aunties out there, knitting beautiful jerseys and beenies for little ones. Each item unique and made with so much L O V E. Today we distributed these beautiful knitted items to Masi CreativeHub 's Young mom's & toddlers group, where the focus has been on Pregnancy, Breastfeeding and support. We also gifted 14 children's T-shirts to the Junior Soccer team & Dignity Boys program.
Thank you so much to St Vincent Du Paul, for entrusting us with this year's Winter drive, to make sure each item is distributed with dignity and love, and of course getting the clothing donation, to where it is most needed and appreciated. Again a big thank you from ourselves Prójekt Ubuntu Community Projects and Masi Creative Hub.

Thank you, enkosi Zolani Mahola for this incredible release. Cannot wait until the 4th of June when Xhosa Nostra drops - Medicine for our nation.

Before he left us, Bravo Le Roux gave us one final verse. 🖤

became the last song he ever recorded.

And you can hear all of him in it - Khayelitsha, isiXhosa, truth, pride, and the fearless spirit that made his voice so important.

This is a moment frozen in time. A piece of him that now lives with all of us.

XhosaNostra drops 4 June 2026.

Let’s make sure his voice continues to travel far beyond us. 🙏🏾

Our soon to be mantra - Xhosa Nostra and People Power!

Something new is coming. Something deeply me.

I'm so proud to announce that I've signed with and that my first single “XhosaNostra” drops 4 June 2026. 🖤

This song is Gqom. It's Xhosa. It's everything I've been building toward. And it features the voice of the late great in one of his final recordings; a gift I don't take lightly.

This is the beginning of a new era. The full album “People Power” is on its way!

An incredible 5 day journey through the Garden Route, with You2africa. From Safaris, to River & Beach swims and hikes, to Kayaking, Surfing, Bungee jumping (Not me).

You2africa offers packages that include volunteering at a Game Lodge, taking in the best of South Africa's off the beaten track spots, combined with a week of volunteering with Projekt Ubuntu & our projects. Also options to choose any one of You2africa's local projects.

Thank you Toby Dixon for this Amazing experience. You2africa & Projekt Ubuntu have partnered for over 15 years, offering our experience in volunteering & internships in South Africa. A trusted team 😊. Give us try.

Visited Elizabeth Beer and her amazing project called Bright Haven, aimed at uplifting rural children in Barrydale, by assisting with a comprehensive holistic program for special needs children. Amy Wendy Rosslind from Count of Eight and Caramel Kids, made our day by offering a movement and dance session with the children from Bright Haven. There are some future stars there. Thank you to Toby Dixon from You2africa for making this possible.

Again in the early hours of this morning, I got a call from the Directors of Projekt Ubuntu Connekt, Busisiwe Banda & Yonela Msutu, advising that a fire had broken out in the surrounding shack area, next to our Community Hall, Amakhaya Ngoku. While breathing a sigh of relief, as the hall remained free from damage, the surrounding shacks and families have lost everything. Fires are such a terrible reality of living in an informal settlement. And we get immune to this sad reality becoming a part of everyday life. But families lose everything, school children lose their books and school uniforms, all possessions & belongings are destroyed. For the next week or 2, we will shift our program to offer trauma relief and counseling to affected families. If you have any building materials, household items, bedding, clothes and toiletaries / food can be dropped off at Projekt Ubuntu Connekt at Amakhaya Ngoku Hall. Please be mindful of emergency supplies, do not drop off junk, drop off meaningful items that can help families rebuild. Please inbox me if you need any additional information. Or contact Busisiwe or Yonela.
