The ‘Green Mambas’ of Ukewela

The ‘Green Mambas’ of Ukewela

The Green Mambas are a group of 14 amazing local women who we are supporting and training to perform green jobs at wildlife reserves including Ukuwela and Mfuleni. With up to 10 dependents per Green Mamba, their employment provides so much support for their communities and children!

The Green Mambas have already participated in an herbicide applicators course and we’re proud to say all 14 women passed with flying colours and are now certified in this training!. The course included how to use the equipment & equipment maintenance, how to understand different herbicides & their labels, snake bite & poison first aid, as well as learning different techniques for dealing with alien plants.

We wish to continue their training and education as well as equip them in their roles. You can donate to support the Green Mambas and your donation will be doubled up thanks to Empowers Africa

Please help us to reach our goal and provide training and employment for these hard-working women in “Zululand” South Africa.
