Ukwamukela and welcome to GEZUBUSO Projects!
Protect. Nurture. Elevate.
Since 2004, Gezubuso Projects has been giving children in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal, a safe home, access to education, and hope for a better future.
Our mission: Protect. Nurture. Elevate.
(To protect children. To nurture their growth. To elevate their future.)
We care for children who grow up without parents, accompany them from pre-school to graduation – and prepare young people for training and employment. This way, we address some of South Africa’s greatest challenges: youth unemployment, teenage pregnancies, violence and poverty.

“It takes a village to raise a child.”
This African proverb expresses a simple truth: children can only grow up healthy and strong if many people stand together – foster mothers, teachers, social workers, neighbours, leaders, mentors and supporters in South Africa as well as donors abroad.
With your support, children gain protection, care, and the opportunity to shape their own future.
