Ukwamukela and welcome to GEZUBUSO Projects!
Sustainable help for disadvantaged children and adults.
Gezubuso Projects is a registered non-profit, non-governmental aid organisation (NPO & NGO) in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Since our inception in 2004, Gezubuso Projects has been a community-focused organisation bringing about positive change in the lives of the vulnerable.
Our mission: Protect. Nuture. Elevate.
With love and compassion, to meet basic needs; through education, to provide the opportunity to live a self-determined life.
Gezubuso is an isiZulu expression meaning “wash your face”. Our name embodies the spirit of dignity and new vision.
In many communities today, we see a high rate of drug abuse among both young men and women, coupled with a significant number of teenage pregnancies. The prevalence of homelessness and the abandonment of children by teenage mothers is alarmingly high. This situation is compounded by the limited support available.
Since our inception in 2004, our programmes at Gezubuso have evolved to attend to the needs of the time. With our mission always being to protect nurture and elevate, our current programmes are as follows -
“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
