Schools
We support hundreds of schools by providing free 1Gbps connectivity to enable learners and teachers to overcome the digital divide. We actively seek out partnerships with schools to build colocation and aggregation facilities on their premises, which allowes us to provide backup power to the school during outages.
Digital literacy
We have several initiatives to bring digital skills and enablement to consumers and entrepreneurs, including partnering with goGOGOgo on our Gogos with Vuma project to equip the elderly with basic digital skills. We also work closely with entrepreneurs in underserved areas to provide them with digital payment solutions and enable profitable reselling programmes for our connectivity solutions.
Sports clinics
In partnership with established non-profits like the Ernie Els Foundation, we coach thousands of children from underserved communities. We also provide an opportunity for talented upcoming athletes to offer their time and skills to under-privaleged youth. All the children who participate are also provided with free connectivity and online coaching to continue their journey.
