Redzebra | Engagement Catalysts

our story

Inspired by their shared belief in the transformational power of music, Oliver and Mark co-founded RedZebra in1994, joined later by their third partner Gloria. Winning a Prince’s Trust grant to make their ‘Music in the Community’ programme a reality, they worked with disadvantaged youth. They experienced firsthand the healing power of music as a conduit to discover your true voice and find your value in the world.

In 1998, just 4 years after the abolition of apartheid, they ran a project in Soweto bringing together black and white children for the first time. Here they realised the incredible power of experiences to generate real and tangible change. In 2000 they opened their office in Cape Town followed by the San Diego office in 2004.

RedZebra has since worked with more than 2 million people in over 75 countries from street children to royalty, from grassroots charities to the world’s biggest brands.
