Thembalitsha Foundation NPC Information

When translated from Xhosa, our name “Thembalitsha” means “new hope”. At Thembalitsha, our aim is exactly that – to restore and bring a new sense of hope to the destitute, forgotten, sick and vulnerable people of the Western and Eastern Cape. We are a Non-Profit Company (NPC) and our mission is to develop people to the point of self-reliance through the provision of services in Education, Healthcare and Training We work with a diverse group of volunteers, partners and full-time staff, who are highly invested in their work; providing significant input and resources that are necessary to see our vision unfold. Currently, we run nine projects, eight of which are based in the Western Cape, and one is based in the Eastern Cape. Both locally and abroad, our key collaborators include Thembalitsha’s funding arms in the US and UK, churches, individual funders, local businesses and local governments to name a few.
