About Us

Isibane se Afrika is a choir and dance group for change founded in the Cape Town township of Khayelitsha. The group was started by local force-for-good community leader Andisiwe Gaqa when she noticed many of the youth in her township had no positive activities to take part in after school. With no parental overview or adult role models around, these kids fell in with drugs and gangs and Andisiwe wanted to provide them an alternative option to be part of something wholesome and uplifting and so the group was born.

Isibane se Afrika is a registered NGO and all income raised from performances are used to uplift the lives of its members and the local community in Khayelitsha through soup kitchens and more. With mesmerising song, dance, drumming and an engaging interactive performance, the audience is treated to an amazing African spectacle while having a positive impact and doing good where it is needed most. Some of the group’s most memorable highlights is performing at an international conference in Poland and performing at the official welcome of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, HRH Prince Harry and Megan, during their South Africa state visit.

Isibane se Afrika can be booked for performances at corporate events, weddings, birthdays, fundraisers, tourism gatherings and more.

Our Vision

It is very important for us to reach more of the community. We want to be able to help those in need around us and provide a safe space. Our vision for the future is for Isibane se Afrika to grow in order for us to be able to have the resources to provide educational programs for our youth concerning health and life skills. We want to be able to increase our soup kitchen that we currently have and do visits to old age homes in the area. This support to the community is much needed and will make a big difference.

We are truly grateful for every single donation we receive. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank you!
