Our Director Wendy Lessing completed the NGO Whisperer Global Fellowship Programme in 2024.
We were both honoured and surprised to learn that she had been selected as the 2025 Social Justice Alumni of the Year at the recent 5th Graduation and Awards Ceremony. This recognition reflects the work of the Khululeka team and our shared commitment to supporting children and young people navigating grief and trauma. We are grateful for the opportunity to be part of a global community of leaders working for social justice.

We recently said goodbye to our intern Zintle Plaatjie. During her time with Khululeka, Zintle quickly became a valued member of the team. She brought creativity, enthusiasm and fresh ideas to our communications work, contributing to content creation and marketing across our platforms. Zintle also leaves a special legacy. She designed our 20th anniversary logo, which will remain a meaningful part of our celebrations this year.
We wish her every success as she begins this exciting new chapter in her career. A sincere thank you to iKasi Media and the MICT SETA for this valuable internship programme that creates opportunities for young people to grow their skills and experience.

Healing takes time. Mindfulness helps you slow down, breathe and feel your emotions without judging yourself. Be present with your healing. One step at a time 🤍

Recently, we visited Yabonga for a mentoring site visit. We learned more about their amazing work and how they support the Khayelitsha community. Thank you to Yabonga for welcoming us and sharing your journey with us.

During our Abangane support group at Ravensmead High, the girls are introduced to a short mindfulness exercise at the start of each session. We have found that this practice helps to create a safe and contained space, allowing participants to slow down, regulate their emotions and feel calm before sharing their personal stories. Mindfulness supports their ability to reflect, listen to one another and engage more openly in the group process.

Our Programme Manager Lira Greeff facilitated training for Education without Borders in basic counselling skills and GBV disclosure. During the session, participants worked in groups to define what counselling means and how to support those in need.

This new month we want to highlight the importance of understanding mental health. Grief work is connected to mental wellbeing. To make sure the work we do is effective, we encourage our children to take care of their mental health. Read these simple steps to guide you.

This Monday, we celebrate Girl Power. Our Girl Power Programme encourages girls to use their voices, believe in themselves, and take the first step in standing up for what they believe in. Together, we are raising confident and strong young leaders.

20/02/2026

Khululeka Grief Support has begun mentoring within the Abangane programme for trained, WCDSD-funded organisations. Masithembele EnrichmentCentre , in Delft, is the first organisation we are engaging with as part of this process. This work reflects our commitment to building informed, compassionate networks of care for young people experiencing grief and trauma.

18/02/2026

Today, we share reflections from the last group of girls who have completed the Abangane support group at Fezeka High. Their voices remind us that young people are not defined by their loss. When given space to reflect, speak and heal, they discover strength, understanding and hope within themselves.
