South Africa’s beloved small-screen star Hungani Ndlovu has officially unveiled his ambitious new project, The Hungani Ndlovu Foundation. The organisation pledges to dedicate its efforts to two crucial pillars of society: nurturing the nation’s youth and championing the holistic well-being of men.
The actor, who captured hearts as Romeo Medupe on the hit soap Scandal!, is channelling his widespread influence into creating tangible change. He steps into a proud tradition of local celebrities, such as Nomzamo Mbatha and Black Coffee, who have successfully leveraged their fame to establish powerful charitable legacies. Ndlovu’s foundation, however, carves its own unique path by zeroing in on these specific and often interconnected social needs.

The announcement was made with profound emotional weight, centred on a powerful statement from the man himself. Ndlovu expressed that the foundation’s emblem is deeply symbolic, representing a solemn vow to the community he seeks to uplift.
He declared, “Our logo is more than just a symbol. It’s a promise: to break stigmas, to create safe spaces, and to help others thrive.” Extending a hand to the public, he added, “Walk with us! Heal with us! Grow with us!” This call to action underscores the foundation’s desire for collective community engagement rather than a top-down approach.
Focusing On The Overlooked And The Future
The foundation’s dual focus addresses significant gaps in societal support. Youth development initiatives aim to provide resources and guidance for the next generation, while the men’s wellness programme intends to shatter deep-seated cultural stigmas surrounding mental and emotional health, a topic Ndlovu has frequently and passionately discussed on his platforms.
