The AMANDLA model for holistic and educational football programmes for the orphans and children who grow up separated from their families includes developmental football leagues, life-skill programmes and youth leadership programmes with the aim to help childcare facilities develop socially aware, self-confident, self disciplined and motivated young people who are leaders and role models to other young people within their communities.
AMANDLA's target demographic is youth staying in residential childcare facilities in South Africa. Exact figures on how many youth are currently placed in residential facilities is not available. However, according to the Children Count ZA institute 18.6% of all children in South Africa are orphaned which does not include children in need of care due to alternative circumstances.
