Our Mission

To uplift youth, one life at a time.

At The UnLearning Children Foundation, we believe that mental health is as important as physical health, and it's time for us to start unlearning the stigma around seeking support. We want to make mental health care accessible to every child in Africa, because we know that by redefining the narrative, we can save lives and bring hope to a generation that needs it more than ever.

Broadly speaking the Foundation's mission is: To help, uplift, and guide children and adolescents aged 10-19 in South Africa and across Africa. To address mental health challenges that contribute to youth suicide by providing awareness, counselling, and professional support. To run UnLearning Days and school-based programmes that inspire children to reimagine their worth, potential, and future. To partner with individuals, corporates, and communities to fund and sustain evidence-based mental health interventions.
