Empowering South African Youth Through Education

Organization information

SPARK/The Umkhumbane Schools Project

Location: Durban, South Africa

Summary

The Umkhumbane Schools Project opens doors to education that remain closed to South African youth 27 years after the end of apartheid. We provide bright, motivated high-school students in the impoverished Cato Manor township area with classes and workshops in math, hands-on STEM, life-skills development, and wrap-around college admissions guidance. Our work impacts a community of schools serving over 5000 students, bringing hope, inspiration, and a growing record of measurable change.
