"Compassionate Connections to
Reduce Harm to Humanity"
“Africans have a thing called Ubuntu: it is about the essence of being human, it is part of the gift that Africa gives the world. It embraces hospitality, caring about others, being willing to go that extra mile for the sake of another. We believe that a person is a person through other persons; that my humanity is caught up and bound up in yours.”
Desmond Tutu
