Everything you need to know about getting involved with We Lead Africa.
There are many ways to get involved! You can donate to support our programs, register as a volunteer mentor or events assistant, become a corporate partner, or enrol your child or young adult in one of our development programs. Use the contact form below or reach out directly via email or phone.
Our programs serve children aged 10 and up, youth, young adults, and even adult community members up to age 40. We also support families through community outreach and work with schools, faith organisations, and local government. Anyone who wants to grow, lead, and contribute is welcome.
We use a combination of quantitative metrics (participants reached, program completion rates, academic and employment outcomes) and qualitative assessment (personal testimonials, mentor evaluations, community feedback). Annual impact reports are published to ensure full transparency with donors and the public.
Our mentorship programs are designed for participants aged 10–40. We structure cohorts by life stage: children (10–14), teens (15–19), young adults (20–30), and adults (30–40), each with age-appropriate content, mentors, and goals.
The safety of every participant is our top priority. All mentors and volunteers undergo thorough background checks, safeguarding training, and sign our Code of Conduct. We comply with South African child protection legislation and have a dedicated Safeguarding Officer. Parents and guardians are always informed and involved.
100% of public donations are directed to program delivery — mentorship stipends, event costs, outreach materials, and participant support. Our administration costs are covered by institutional grants. Full financial statements are available upon request.
