About us

Oasis South Africa is part of a global family that has been pioneering life-transforming housing, healthcare, education and youth work initiatives across the globe for over twenty years.

We’ve been working in Johannesburg since July 2006 when Oasis South Africa was established by Oasis UK in partnership with a local church, Mosaiek - looking to find ways in which we can make a unique contribution to overcoming the challenges communities face here.

We want to see a just and inclusive world, in which everyone (and we mean everyone) has equal opportunity to reach his or her potential.

We're motivated by our Christian faith to serve people and transform communities by promoting inclusion and confronting injustice.

We know that this could sound like a bit of a pipe dream – changing the world, promoting inclusion, confronting injustice - but what does it actually mean?

The best way to find out is by taking a look at what we're doing in Johannesburg and what the Oasis global family is doing around the world.
