Reachout To Africa a Canadian Registered Charity (Reg # 840045074RR0001) is about making visible and significant changes in the lives of children, youth and young adults in the Mpumalanga Province of South Africa and beyond. Every child is important and deserves the love and support of a caring adult.
We work with dedicated staff and leaders to effect that principal in the schools and areas where we are located. Many thousands of children and youth have been touched by our organization over the past 15 years. We have some of our children come through our program, gone on to become valuable leaders in our system and then onto to college or university or started their own businesses.
Early in 2017, we together with our partner organization Mamkhulu.org purchased a guest house and camp ground for the future development of our joint programs. You can see more about Ekukhanyeni (The place of Light)

Nicholas Short - CEO and Founder. Back in 2005 Nick founded Reachout To Africa after personally experiencing the impact that HIV AIDS was having on the children and youth of South Africa. He returned to Canada convinced that there was something that could be done to help offset the devastation this deadly disease was having on the social and educational lives of young people living in the epicenter of this pandemic. Nick registered a non-profit which was later converted into a registered charity. Since its beginning Reachout To Africa has facilitated several hundred volunteers going to work in South Africa. In addition, Reachout To Africa has sent substantial funding to partner organizations in Africa.
