Imbumba Foundation honours 2025 Trek4Mandela participants
Story 1
Imbumba Foundation has honoured four brave 2025 Trek4Mandela participants and Mount Kilimanjaro summiteers at the Nelson Mandela Foundation last month.
Trek4Mandela is an annual expedition that falls under the NPO and was founded by innovative social entrepreneur Richard Mabaso in 2010, with the aim of honouring Nelson Mandela's legacy and inspire Africans and people worldwide.
One of the climbers, Ntando Ngubane, was motivated to join the expedition after a near-death experience in 2021 and is now passionate about the Caring4Girls Programme, supporting young girls' education and sanitary needs through Trek4Mandela's partnership.
The Caring4Girls Programme addresses the harsh reality that many South African girls miss school due to lack of access to sanitary products and reproductive health education.
