Ubuntu Farewell helps Africans living abroad plan dignified, culturally respectful end-of-life arrangements and support their families across borders. Guided by the philosophy “I am because we are,” the service connects funeral cover, repatriation, cultural rites and family guidance, aiming to reduce paperwork and uncertainty during a difficult time. Its diaspora last-expense plans cover nuclear or extended families, with annual options starting at US$150.

The site states that plans include real-time claim tracking, cultural rite coordination and claims processing within 48 hours; repatriation support is also included. Families can request live streaming and digital memorial programmes to participate from overseas, while GoFundMe integration is available on request to support lower-income families. Ubuntu Farewell says its cover is backed by Old Mutual and repatriation is provided by AVBOB.

Its approach emphasizes transparent pricing, clear updates and respect for traditions, including Luo, Zulu and Kikuyu rites. The company serves diaspora families across more than four continents and offers 24/7 emergency support, with planning and contact available through WhatsApp
