ZERi Africa is a non-profit company that promotes quality education for South African learners. ZERi Africa aims to deliver an excellent educational solution that infuses Africanism, to produce learners who are confident and equipped to pursue any opportunity. Learners who are proud of their African heritage and its traditions, who know they leave in a global space, and are determined to do well and contribute positively to their community.

ZERi Africa model aims to break the cycle of poverty by focusing primarily and intensively on the educational and social development of children. Our Model, or continuum of services, provides children and families with a seamless series of free, coordinated, best-practice programs. We focus on the needs of children at every developmental stage with specific programs addressing pre-natal care, infants, early childhood development, primary school, high school, youth out of school, and tertiary support.

We provide wraparound academic supports and a number of enrichment opportunities that help children build character, engage in teamwork, partake in healthy competition, and benefit from unique exposure opportunities.

 We do this by prioritizing relationships — with learners, with their families, and with educators at our partner schools. To be as responsive as needed, provide individualized support, and encourage learners to follow their interests, we must first know learners and their families.
