Umthathi is the isiXhosa word for Sneeze wood, traditionally symbolizing strength and renewal of life. These ideals underpin our organisational vision and mission. Umthathi Training Project Trust is a non-profit organisation that was founded in 1992, based in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape province. Our training involves food and health security and brings an element of self-sustainable income generation to our beneficiaries by use of these skills and contributes to the preservation of indigenous plant life through knowledge of biodiversity and climate change
