UBUNTU - Leaders in Lancaster

Growing Leaders | Building Communities

UBUNTU Brochure“I am who I am because of who we all are.” Do you believe that? The team at Ubuntu Leaders in Lancaster (ULL) does.

The statement above is a definition of the ancient African word “Ubuntu” as described by ULL. Launched out of Millersville University’s Learning Institute, the mission of this new community-based program is centered on that word, the first in its title. The team at ULL believes that that term comes to life by interacting with and serving others for the benefit of one’s community.

No one is more capable of facilitating local and global change than the youth. As a result of extensive research and preparation, ULL has developed a program specifically designed for individuals in seventh through 12th grade who attend school in Lancaster County and want to make a difference in their communities. ULL aims to help these individuals enhance compassion skills, develop leadership abilities, advocate social justice and foster global citizenry.
