Khayelitsha, South Africa
School in operation
At African Leadership, we don't just build schools—we create safe, nurturing environments where children are fed, empowered, and able to thrive. Our Khayelitsha School is one of the many we have completed, providing quality education and daily meals to students. These schools offer children the opportunity to focus on their studies while giving parents, especially single mothers, the freedom to work and support their families.
Schools in progress
Growing our impact
Our work doesn’t stop with completed schools. We are actively building more schools to reach even more children in need. These schools are in the process of becoming places where children can learn, grow, and thrive. As we continue to expand, we aim to provide safe, supportive spaces for education and empowerment, strengthening families and communities.
Women’s entrepreneurship class
From survival to success
Many programs train people for jobs. We do more. Our entrepreneur training helps parents—especially women—start and grow their own businesses. Instead of training them for low-wage jobs, we equip them with real skills to help build financial independence— helping entire families escape poverty.
Sustainable fish farming
Empowering communities, sustaining futures
In Madagascar, African Leadership is leading a transformative project where volunteers come together to build. First, they learn construction skills by working on projects like apartment buildings. Once these buildings are complete, the rental income helps support the volunteers' future ambitions after they graduate from the Entrepreneurship Training Program.
With these newly gained skills, the volunteers are now helping build a sustainable fish farm to provide food and income for the local community. This project is about more than just building—it’s about creating a future of self-reliance, sustainability, and hope for generations to come.
