ABOUT US
Ikamva Labantu ('the Future of our Nation') is a South African non-profit, non-governmental organisation. It traces its roots back to the days of apartheid, when Helen Lieberman started working with women in the poverty-stricken townships around Cape Town. These compassionate beginnings led to a movement of social
development that has grown into the organisation it is today: an umbrella body with a network of over 1,000 projects working with and assisting various sectors of the population — children, youth, families, seniors and those physically challenged. These projects improve the daily lives of tens of thousands of the neediest people in South Africa.
