Ndingumntu Nam Self Care Fair’s aims to inspire the people of Africa by focusing on raising mental health awareness in black and brown communities, as they believe that this is where education on the matter is needed most. They began by finding words of mental illness in African languages because of the widespread denialism of the issue in our communities e.g. ungxunguphalo - depression, ungxunguphalo olundlela mbini - bipolar, ukukhula kwesimilo - growth in personality.

The goal is to educate people through events like a self care fair – a space created for individuals to learn of the various methods they can adopt to improve their mental health e.g. journaling stalls where journals are given away, music stalls where people are educated about how different music affects your mood, etc. Ndingumntu Nam Self Care Fair’s goal is to have a wellness center where they provide holistic health service and education on mental health. They believe their work will be a great benefit to their community as they would be creating job opportunities, education and empowering the youth of Africa.
