Registered as a public benefit organisation, Nkulo was created to support welfare and humanitarian initiatives; healthcare; education and development; social mobilisation; conservation, the environment and animal welfare; and sports and culture.
Its maiden donations in 2024 contributed to local health in the form of medical resources and sanitation.
The first, approximately R6 million in essential medical supplies and equipment, was made to the Witbank Tertiary Hospital and will be used for the care of critically ill patients. The hospital admits up to 20 high-care patients every day. The donation included hospital linen, blankets, pillows, patient wear and endoscopic clips,
The second is a 16,000-litre honeysucker for the Steve Tshwete Local Municipality. These vacuum trucks are used to drain septic tanks, unblock sewerage pipes and empty pit latrine systems in rural areas.
Among the current projects are:
- Nineteen new classrooms and ablution facilities for Mphephethe Primary School in Hendrina, where learners are still exposed to the harmful effects of outdated asbestos building materials.
- The construction of a much larger and more suitable facility for the expanding Bonginhlanhla Stimulation Centre for the Disabled in Middelburg in collaboration with Mafube. This organisation provides day-time care, therapeutic support and various types of education for children and young adults living with physical and intellectual disabilities.
- The KwaGuqa water pipeline rehabilitation project entails the replacement of sections of the pipeline to reduce losses and improve access to safe, clean water in the area.
