About us
The Lemba Heritage Institute is a Non-Profit Organisation established to bring light to the incredible culture and heritage of the Lemba people by establishing a repository and a formal library of all their oral and written history to ensure this amazing culture is preserved for posterity. We will in addition be engaging in fundraising activities to help fund the studies that go into further establishing the roots of the Lemba, as well as sponsoring the different events that the Lemba need to engage in.
