We rely on the generosity of our community

We are reliant on the generosity of our parent body, alumni, business and individual donors to generate funds for the promotion of social upliftment. These include the support for boys on scholarship and the funding of students to enrol for the duration of the high school career. We are open to engage with our community and welcome any form of support for our advancement programme.

Ways of giving

Ububele – The spirit of Ubuntu

Ububele expresses the spirit of Ubuntu: generosity, community wellness and the spirit of togetherness. This is made possible by the spirit of generosity of all who contribute towards the initiative. We celebrate the success of all our boys who are supported through Ububele. May this initiative grow from strength to strength.

Brotherhood

The St Benedict’s community is known as a cohesive body, spread over three sections, Junior Prep, Preparatory School and College. All relationships on campus are marked by a strong spirit of brotherhood, fostering inclusive engagements.

Social cohesion

Our boys are encouraged to be mindful of the needs of their brothers and the broader community. Ububele is one of the vehicles that is instrumental in promoting social cohesion within our school community.

Supporting boys in need

This initiative provides a platform where parents, boys and staff can contribute towards the well-being of boys in need of support. With Ububele we promote active participation through supporting boys in need to actively participate in all areas of the life of the school.
