Mission & Purpose: Eduplex was born from a vision of hope and empowerment. Mr. Nelson Mandela, profoundly stated: "What you are doing here is changing tragedy into triumph." These words still reflect the heart of our mission: to empower deaf children to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally within a mainstream educational has a ripple effect that extends beyond the classroom - it transforms entire families and communities, not only changing the life of each deaf child but also affecting their families' lives. We align closely with the World Bank's goals of helping countries improve education programs. Our approach includes: We established the Eduplex Training Institute (ETI) as an online, blended learning, and practical workshop training center EDUPLEX is also a training hub, sharing their expertise in inclusion, and the optimal use of technology in education, with professionals worldwide. Teacher training through the Eduplex Training Institute (ETI) The Online "How to be a Better Teacher" training programmes have been awarded several government contracts to train teachers in how to be a better teacher Expanding access to inclusive education for deaf boys and girls By 2050 Africa will house the larges young population in the world with one third of the global youth residing in sub-Sahar Africa. At Eduplex, we believe education is the bridge between despair and hope. We see every child - deaf or hearing - as a potential leader, innovator, and contributor to a better tomorrow. Our mission is to equip them not only with knowledge, but with confidence, dignity, and faith in their God-given potential Eduplex is a mainstream, parallel-medium school and serves as a model for inclusive education internationally. The current enrolment is 810 children, of whom 70 are deaf. As the school receives no government funding, 40 of these deaf learners are supported entirely by private donors. The Eduplex Model: How deaf children learn to talk and thrive: A common question is, "How is it possible for deaf children to talk?" Our success is built on a rigorous, proven methodology that empowers deaf children to learn and communicate through spoken language. This is achieved through a dedicated process that includes: Early Identification of hearing loss. Fitting of Appropriate Amplification (advanced digital hearing aids or cochlear implants). Intensive Parent Guidance & Professional Support to create a language-rich environment. Maximum Use of Technology to ensure optimal auditory access. Full Inclusive Education in a mainstream setting, providing nothing but normal, natural language exposure alongside their hearing peers. This holistic approach ensures that deaf children at Eduplex do not just learn-they thrive academically, socially, and spiritually, becoming confident, articulate individuals. The Eduplex Training Institute (ETI): Founded in 2014, the Eduplex Training Institute (ETI) is the strategic arm dedicated to scaling our inclusive education model beyond our school gates. ETI translates over two decades of practical, in-classroom experience into comprehensive professional development for educators, therapists, and school leaders. We offer a suite of SACE-accredited online and on-site courses, practical workshops, and whole-school training programs. Our training is not theoretical; it is built on the lived success of the Eduplex school, providing educators with immediately applicable strategies for creating inclusive, effective, and faith-based learning environments. By equipping education professionals, ETI acts as a powerful multiplier effect, ensuring that thousands more children-with and without disabilities-can benefit from the Eduplex methodology. Eduplex stands as a living testament to the transformative power of faith, innovation, and compassion. Born from a God-given vision, it has grown into a global model for Christian-inclusive education-systematically turning the tragedy of hearing loss into a triumph of opportunity, dignity, and hope.

Future Families is a non-profit organisation rendering quality services to Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC) and people infected and affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa. Our objective is to keep children in their families. This is sometimes a new type of family - a Granny-headed family, a youth-headed family or even a child-headed family. We empower the community to care for the family and create support to ensure the family can successfully raise balanced children who will become responsible members of the community.

Our vision is a South Africa where people who choose to sell sex are able to enjoy freedom, rights and human dignity.

Ukhanyo Foundation Youth Empowerment NPC exists to restore hope, dignity, and opportunity for young people from South Africa's most underserved communities, with a core focus on supporting learners who have not passed the National Senior Certificate (NSC) and who face deep socio-economic barriers to completing their education. The organisation's mission is to equip these young people with the academic support, personal development tools, resources, and mentoring relationships they need to rewrite their matric successfully, transition into further education or employment, and break the cycle of poverty that restricts their life chances. Every year in South Africa, more than 800,000 learners sit for the matric examination. Despite the enormous effort invested by teachers and learners, significant numbers do not achieve a passing result. In recent years, roughly 30 to 35 percent of candidates have either failed, dropped out before reaching Grade 12, or passed without the requirements needed to progress into university or college programmes. This represents hundreds of thousands of young people annually who are immediately placed at a disadvantage in the labour market. South African labour statistics are clear: individuals without a matric certificate experience unemployment rates exceeding 55 percent, often becoming long-term unemployed due to limited access to skills development, workplace exposure, and formal sector opportunities. Without targeted support, these young people remain locked out of pathways to stability, economic participation, and self-determination. Ukhanyo Foundation positions itself as a bridge for these young people. Its mission is grounded in the belief that educational failure should never be a life sentence, and that with the right intervention, students who have failed their matric can rebuild their academic confidence, regain direction, and unlock their potential. The organisation provides structured, high-impact matric rewrite programmes designed to address the academic, emotional, and social barriers that led to underperformance. Tutoring is delivered by qualified educators and subject mentors, with a focus on key gateway subjects such as Mathematics, Mathematical Literacy, Physical Sciences, Life Sciences, Accounting, Business Studies, and English. Learners receive personalised learning plans, assessment feedback, and ongoing monitoring to ensure measurable improvement. However, Ukhanyo Foundation recognises that academic support alone is not enough. Many young people from disadvantaged communities face intersecting socio-economic pressures that make it extraordinarily difficult to study, concentrate, complete assignments, or plan for the future. These include poverty, food insecurity, unsafe living conditions, family responsibilities, lack of study space, trauma, and emotional stress. For this reason, the organisation integrates psychosocial support, life-skills development, personal growth workshops, and coaching sessions into all programmes. Learners develop resilience, self-awareness, communication skills, career clarity, and emotional intelligence, enabling them not only to pass their exams but to navigate adulthood with greater confidence and stability. In addition, Ukhanyo Foundation is committed to tackling the structural inequality that shapes youth unemployment. Its mission includes strengthening pathways to employability by offering career guidance, CV support, digital literacy training, workplace readiness workshops, and connections to partner organisations, training providers, and potential employers. By equipping learners with both education and employability skills, the organisation supports long-term outcomes that extend far beyond the moment of receiving a matric certificate. At its core, Ukhanyo Foundation's mission is to disrupt the recurring cycle where disadvantaged learners become disadvantaged adults and where educational setbacks dictate lifelong disadvantage. The organisation seeks to build a future in which young people from historically marginalised communities have equal access to quality education, resources, and opportunities. The Foundation aims to produce empowered, confident, employable, and socially responsible young adults who can contribute positively to their families, communities, and the broader South African society. Through community partnerships, collaborative work with schools, social workers, parents, and youth organisations, Ukhanyo Foundation fosters an ecosystem of support that extends beyond the classroom. Its mission is to ensure that no young person is left behind due to circumstances of birth, socio-economic hardship, or temporary academic failure. Every learner who enters the programme is treated with dignity, encouraged to dream again, and guided through the practical steps needed to transform those dreams into real, tangible achievements. Ultimately, Ukhanyo Foundation Youth Empowerment NPC is driven by a commitment to inclusivity, educational justice, and meaningful youth upliftment. Its mission is to champion second chances, create sustainable pathways for young people to rise above adversity, and contribute to a society where potential is not wasted and every individual is supported to thrive.

The KwaZulu-Natal Children's Hospital Trust is leading the transformation of Africa's first dedicated children's hospital - the KwaZulu-Natal Children's Hospital, a historic landmark in Durban, South Africa - into a world-class Centre of Excellence for child and adolescent healthcare. In partnership with the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Health, we are restoring this once-forgotten hospital as a beacon of hope, with a particular focus on addressing critical gaps in neurodevelopmental and mental health services. Opened in 1931, the hospital provided care until 1984, when it was closed by the apartheid government because it treated children of all races. After decades of neglect, the Trust was established in 2011 to restore the facility through a public-private partnership with the KwaZulu-Natal Department of Health, with a dual mission: renovate the hospital and re-establish vital child and adolescent services. Today, it stands as a symbol of renewal and equity, ensuring that every child and adolescent has access to care.
