Message from the Founder
Ah! Zanodumo

Amahlubi Chairmans Foundation seeks to identify itself in every living traditional family, community and system of culture across all indigenous communities and people who recognise the importance of land as a tool to develop oneself.

Our intention for the future is to bring unity to our traditional communities and support the call made by my great grandfather Nkosi SNF Zibi (Ah! Dabulamanzi) for Africans to come together and recognise the importance of ownership of land.




We therefore work on those premise as an organisation that land and the custom and culture of people must be put at the centre of their development aspirations.

Our team is made up of a diverse group of people from different parts of our rural traditional landscape in Africa so as to ensure our programs of impact meet both academic which drives performance excellence.
