Roger Federer’s foundation has made early education a major focus across Southern Africa, supporting children, teachers and communities in countries including South Africa, Lesotho, Malawi, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe. In 2025, Federer revealed that its work in South Africa had provided quality preschool education to more than 300,000 children. However, significant gaps remain, with millions of children still needing stronger access to quality early learning and educational resources.
