TOGETHER TO HEAL.

YOU’RE NOT ALONE

There’s always light at the end of the tunnel, and those behind Umatter know this better than anyone. Umatter is a parent and peer support group for burn survivors in South Africa. Using storytelling as a healing tool, we aim to create positive experiences that build self-esteem, inspire hope and ignite possibilities among burn survivors and their families.

A Brighter Future for Keyandra

After a burn injury, little Keyandra found healing through Umatter.

“You didn’t just heal my daughter’s skin…you healed her spirit.” – Nonkululeko Khuzwayo

Thank you to Dr. Ronell Parkhurst, Dr. Jeanne-Marie Meintjes, Anthea Fernandes, Tebogo Buchanan, and Wayde for helping her shine again.
