About Us

Established in 2019, the Literacy4life Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming underserved communities through the power of literacy. Our mission is simple yet profound: to empower lives and promote lifelong learning, one book at a time.

The Literator Newsletter

We will be embarking on an exciting journey with Literacy4life as we celebrate not only five years of impactful initiatives but also embrace the
dawn of a promising demi-decade. Download our January newsletter to get more insight about what we are up to!

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
-Nelson Mandela

Mission

To promote literacy in underserved communities

To deliver sustainable initiatives through collaborating with individuals and organisations that share the same vision.

To equip communities with resources that will develop a nation that communicates effectively.

Our Projects

Tswelopele correctional centre

We journeyed to the Tswelopele Correctional Centre in Northern Cape. Through collaboration with esteemed partners—the Nelson Mandela Foundation and the Department of Correctional Services—we breathed life into a day of enlightenment.

Bula Tsela primary school

Our endeavor led us to the heart of learning at Bula Tsela Primary School. Located in a vibrant community of Sebokeng, this school is a hub of young potential.

Listen to our journey

Throughout the years, we have collected interviews that tell our story, shared by all our supporters. We continue to gather these voices as we engage with communities and make a difference in the lives of African children. Browse through the collection to learn more about our journey.
