Jacob Lief Biography

Jacob Lief is the Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Ubuntu Education Fund a non-profit organization that takes vulnerable children in the townships of Port Elizabeth South Africa from cradle to career. Ubuntu's programmes form an integrated system of medical health educational and social services ensuring that a child who is either orphaned or vulnerable could after several years succeed in the world of higher education and employment. Ubuntu's child-centred approach highlights the difference between merely touching a child's life versus fundamentally changing it. In 2009 Lief was selected as an Aspen Institute Global Fellow. In 2012 he was asked to join the Clinton Global Initiative Advisory Committee. Later that year he was named one of the world's 101 most innovative visionaries at the Decide Now Act Summit.
