Who we are

Whole-person care,
rooted in dignity.

Founded in 2019, IBOOST Foundation is an Eswatini nonprofit serving children and youth, with deliberate care for orphans and vulnerable children facing trauma, loss and financial hardship.

Our Christian mission is to share love through practical care. We work across health and wellbeing, education, social empowerment, skills development and optional spiritual support—respecting every person's dignity and freedom of belief.

“We educate the head, the heart and the hand.”

How we help

One child. Every dimension.

02E

Empowerment

Life skills, resilience, leadership, vocational pathways and community-building for young people.

03L

Learning

Tutoring, educational support, mentoring, outdoor learning and internationally recognised skills courses.

04P

Praying

Optional prayer, Bible study and spiritual encouragement for those who choose to participate.

A legacy of compassion

The Chelsea Dudley Mental Health Programme

One generous choice
became a movement.

Years after volunteering with vulnerable children in Eswatini, Chelsea Dudley asked IBOOST Foundation to find a girl she had never forgotten. Two girls shared the same name—so Chelsea supported both, covering three years of school fees and providing food and blankets for their families.

Her compassion inspired the Chelsea Dudley Mental Health Programme, now bringing awareness, counselling, psychosocial support and skills development to thousands of children and young people—especially girls facing abuse, deprivation, inequality and exclusion.

Compassion opens doors. Dignity lets every young person choose their own path.

Mental health in schools

Building safer places to learn.

IBOOST works with learners, educators and caregivers in Manzini-area schools. Our proposed collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Training's ETGPS unit would strengthen mental-health literacy, first-response skills, counselling, referral pathways and follow-up.

  • Interactive learner awareness sessions
  • Mental Health First Aid–style teacher and parent training
  • Trauma, depression and suicide-risk assessment and referral
  • Mental-health camps using art, music, sport and storytelling
  • Food, blankets, clothing and hygiene support for vulnerable families
