Our essence
“I am because you are”
It takes a whole tribe to raise a child. At Ubuntu we make it possible every day with togetherness, care and support in the heart of Ciutat Meridiana.
Togetherness
Spaces where children, young people and families meet and grow together.
Care
Every child is unique: we listen, care for and value them.
Support
Alongside families, the neighbourhood and the school, step by step.

About us
An association born in the neighbourhood
In 2008 we started out as a Saturday-afternoon leisure space in Zona Nord, Ciutat Meridiana. Eight years later, seeing neighbourhood families' needs, Associació Educació i Lleure Ubuntu was born: “I am because you are”.
We are a team of dedicated professionals and volunteers. Thanks to the community, Ubuntu grows year after year and reaches more children and families.

Every donation becomes educational leisure, school support, psychological care and family support. And every new volunteer makes the tribe bigger.
