About Us
Our Mission Statement
Restoring Dignity. Rebuilding Hope. Reaching Lives.
Together, we’re creating a more compassionate, nourished, and empowered community — one life at a time.
Who We Are
The Emmanuel Kizito Foundation was born from a simple yet powerful idea — that no one should face hunger, hardship, or hopelessness alone. Operating in Johannesburg and surrounding communities, we are a non-profit organization driven by compassion, purpose, and the unwavering belief that every human being deserves dignity and opportunity.
We provide nutritious meals, essential supplies, support programs, and mentorship, not just to those experiencing homelessness, but also to the silent sufferers — families pushed to the edge by poverty, unemployment, and rising living costs.
We are not just a feeding scheme. We are a movement of hope, humanity, and restoration.
Our Purpose & Vision
We’re here because poverty and homelessness are not just statistics — they are stories, faces, families, and futures at stake.
Our work is rooted in empathy and action. We aim to not only meet urgent needs but also empower individuals to rebuild, recover, and reclaim their potential.
