At Seamoss Africa, wellness is more than just the products we offer — it’s about caring for the community around us. This belief is what inspired the Ubuntu Care Drive, a movement rooted in the African philosophy of “I am because we are.”
The Ubuntu Care Drive is our way of bringing health, dignity, and empowerment together. It combines the nourishment of Seamoss Africa’s products with initiatives that address real challenges faced by young people in South Africa — particularly girls who struggle with access to menstrual care.
What is the Ubuntu Care Drive?
The Ubuntu Care Drive is a community-focused program that connects wellness with giving back. Each campaign under this initiative is designed to ensure that while our community members look after their own health, they’re also uplifting someone else.
From wellness workshops to product-linked donation drives, the Ubuntu Care Drive ensures that empowerment and dignity are shared.
Why We Started
For many young girls, menstruation isn’t just a natural process — it’s a challenge that keeps them from fully living their lives. A lack of access to sanitary pads means missing school, falling behind in class, and dealing with stigma.
We knew we couldn’t focus only on selling wellness products without also addressing these barriers. That’s why the Ubuntu Care Drive was born: to create a cycle of care where our customers’ wellness directly contributes to someone else’s dignity.
What We Do
The Ubuntu Care Drive runs a variety of campaigns, including:
- Menstruation Wellness Workshops
Educational sessions that teach young girls about nutrition, hygiene, and natural remedies that support their menstrual health. - Pad Donation Campaigns
Initiatives like our Seamoss Gel Special, where customers bring sanitary pads as their “ticket” to access special offers. These pads are then distributed to schools and communities that need them most. - Wellness Packs
Distribution of herbal teas, seamoss gel, and other natural products that help learners and families improve their daily health.
How It Works
The Ubuntu Care Drive follows a simple principle: Wellness in, Wellness out.
- When you invest in your health through Seamoss Africa products, you’re also contributing to someone else’s health and dignity.
- Every campaign creates a direct link between our customers and the communities we support.
The Impact
- Learners stay in school: By providing pads, we reduce absenteeism caused by menstruation.
- Communities feel empowered: With wellness education, families adopt healthier practices.
- Customers become changemakers: Every Seamoss Africa customer is part of the solution, not just a buyer.
How You Can Get Involved
- Join a campaign — participate in our specials, workshops, or donation drives.
- Spread the word — tell friends and family about the Ubuntu Care Drive.
- Stay connected — follow Seamoss Africa for updates on upcoming initiatives.
The Ubuntu Care Drive is about building bridges between personal wellness and collective upliftment. It’s about saying: your health matters, and so does hers.
At Seamoss Africa, we believe true wellness is not only about the body — it’s about community, dignity, and Ubuntu.
Because wellness is for everyone.
