Jabulani Foundation
Jabulani Foundation serves a large Xhosa community of up to 140,000 people. The Xhosa are well known for their family-oriented culture, and traditional way of life. Our rural location is sparsely populated with remote homesteads and small villages, largely cut-off from the modern world and its amenities.
Jabulani currently has 7 full time volunteers.
Desmond & Leah Tutu is our patron.
