The vision of Lungisani Indlela is to transform and
empower the lives of the people and children of
Amaoti, bringing them hope for the future.

Our vision and mission is to see every child in a
crèche or school, to see the Amaoti crèches and
schools transformed and reach a standard of
excellence; every orphan cared for; entrepreneurial businesses
established within Amaoti; children participating in sports, dance, drama, art and crafts, so that no-one will be idle as they develop a transformed work and play ethic. We believe that community development is the most appropriate action to combat poverty. Such development needs to incorporate the social, spiritual and physical well being of each individual (holistic approach), focusing on the old adage of ‘teach the people to fish’.

Lungisani Indlela has been working in Amaoti since November 2001. It all started with a simple, weekly feeding scheme. Currently Lungisani Indlela employs over 15 people from the community to coordinate and staff a number of projects that focus on assisting the children and youth of Amaoti, as well as their families.
