Social Responsibility :
Uyanda Mbuli took a stand and joined the march against Xenophobia.
"I stand AGAINST the Xenophobic attacks that have been happening all around the country and that's why I joined the march against Xenophobia. We are a democratic nation 'the rainbow nation' & we can resolve issues without turning to violence. It is against all human rights for us as African's to fight each other and even burn people alive. This is not the kind of example I want to set for my son and the future generation. Xenophobia is the same as Apartheid!" --- Uyanda Mbuli --

The Project will include visiting schools in the province and raising funds to uplift the infrastructure in some schools. "Every great concept or dream is born in the mind and with the right vision, guidance, hard work and ambition that dream can be realised. Young people need good role models that they can look up to and all it takes from us is our time to make a small but yet significant contribution towards nation building", Mbuli said. She will champion this cause regardless of where she'll be; from New York to KaNyamazane.
She added that they will be inviting other celebrities and leaders in different spheres to share their struggles and secrets to success with young people all over the province.

Each sms costs R5 and all proceeds will go to her Youth Development Initiative to raise funds for the upgrading of different selected schools throughout the country.
Mbuli has been motivating young people to strive to be the best that they can be since launching this project in Mpumalanga a few months ago. On Tuesday she visited Khaselihle Primary School in Kagiso Township.
"Young people need good role models that they can look up to and all it takes from us is our time to make a small but yet significant contribution towards nation building. I'm also using YandaWorld, my website to advance this cause. People of different origin, size and gender can enter this competition as many times as they wish", Mbuli said.
She added that a lot of young people have been asking her about her red carpet outfits and now she's giving them the opportunity to own one specially designed to suit each winner and all they have to do is to donate R5 to her social upliftment project.
Currently, Mbuli is identifying schools which she'll be raising funds for, to upgrading education facilities in those selected schools all over the country; while motivating youth to be committed towards their studies. She said she'll be visiting Limpopo, Eastern Cape, Soweto & KwaZulu Natal in the next few months and there after she'll go to other provinces as well. "My plan is to go on a road-show that will cover the entire country - I'm well aware that I can't save South Africa in one day and alone, but the little that I can do; I will", Mbuli added.
The people that Mbuli will be working with includes per Publicist Simphiwe Majola, Celebrity Makeup Artist and Stylist Eco Mash, Beauty Institute Owner & current Mrs. South Africa Globe Doris Msibi, Fashion Designers Jeff of Jeff International & Ephraim of Ephemol, amongst others.
