In South Africa, as in many other countries, computers is beyond the reach of those who need it the most.

Mobile phones specifically data connectivity, have long been recognised for promoting and facilitating social inclusion, in terms of the participation of individuals and groups in society’s political, economic and societal processes. This is because mobile phones offer the most direct, personal and measurable way to connect with people through content and services that are relevant and impactful.

Our mobile-first solutions are designed to cost-effectively enable the transition from a resource-based to a knowledge-based economy, whilst focusing on three priority areas to improve lives through education.

What we do: 

The Reach Trust is a "technology for good" organisation with a mission to inspire and improve lives through the development of innovative and cost-effective technology solutions. Our core focus areas are early childhood development (ECD) and youth skills development.
