Rooted in the philosophy of “Ubukhona Bam Bungebanga Lemvelo”(“My Identity Knows No Boundaries”), the organisation exists to nurture a generation of disciplined, culturally grounded and socially responsible young leaders who are equipped to positively transform their communities and preserve African heritage for future generations.
