Education. Empowerment. Excellence.
The Umlambo Foundation, founded by Dr. Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, is dedicated to transforming South Africa through education — improving literacy, teacher training, and lifelong learning.
We believe that education is not just a cause — it is an investment in the future of every child, family, and community. Our work supports teachers in the foundation phase (Grades R–4), helping learners master reading for meaning, and empowering educators with practical resources, technology, and mentorship.
