| FORM 990, PART I, LINE 1 AND PART III, LINE 1 MISSION: | Ubuntu Pathways provides world-class health, education, and household stability support to 2,000 vulnerable children and their families in the townships of Port Elizabeth, South Africa. We mitigate obstacles such as disease, hunger, and abuse by offering individually tailored services to every client, so that they may overcome their unique set of circumstances to lead healthy, financially stable lives. These interventions include: household stability assistance; primary health care services; HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment; reproductive health services early childhood and primary school programming; after-school and university support; and job skills training. Through this comprehensive approach, we ensure that our clients can achieve a lifetime of stability and success. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: | This year, Ubuntu Pathways suspended our core programming to launch a crisis response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our three largest programs related to this effort are outlined below: Food Security: Ubuntu launched an ambitious food security programme to distribute parcels with nutritional staples and other critical household supplies to nearby townships. Sinc March 2020, we have kept 4,000 households (almost 30,000 community members) fed and healthy each month. Food packages have included a month-long supply of food for approximately 7 household members comprising fresh fruit and vegetables, flour, milk, maize meal, baked beans, sugar, salt, cooking oil, rice, soya beef mince, samp, pasta, tea bags, and supplements. Each package has also contained cleaning products, hand soap, sanitary pads, bleach, and 5 masks. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: | PPE Distribution & Medical Capacity Building: Port Elizabeths healthcare system is in the midst of the worst crisis we have seen in the last two decades. Our local hospitals and clinics lack supplies, capacity, leadership, and trained personnel. While Ubuntus medical programming has always included providing primary healthcare and HIV/TB services to our client base, the COVID-19 crisis has required us to pivot and scale up our medical support to bolster vital clinics and welfare institutions nearby. One of the biggest needs of the community has been sourcing personal protective equipment (PPE), which is critical to carrying out our work and for ensuring the safety of our team and clients. Ubuntu has provided 27 community institutions (including hospitals, clinics, schools and shelters) with critical PPE and other lifesaving equipment, as well as clinical capacity support. This assistance has prevented clinics from closing due to resource shortages, enabling thousands of patients to receive uninterrupted medical treatment and other key social services each day. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4C, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: | Wraparound Services: The challenges of COVID-19 have required that we innovate new ways to keep in touch with hundreds of clients and ensure their well-being. Many elderly Ubuntu clients are the heads of their households and primary caretakers for children, making their physical and psychological health paramount to the stability of the overall community. Our team has provided targeted services to grand-parents, parents, and relatives and maintained constant remote communication throughout the year. We have also provided updates via WhatsApp messaging and phone calls, as well as conducted virtual psychosocial sessions. Our caseworkers are also reporting an uptick in clients facing gender-based violence in line with similar reports across the country. Thus, we have increased our case management services targeting women and children and are doing everything possible to ensure that these vulnerable groups remain safe and receive urgent care when in need. |
