CHILDREN'S REFUGE
In the heart of Tembisa
A children’s home that was established in 2002 by Ms Mthimkhulu, who was a professional nurse providing voluntary services to help disadvantaged children and providing day care services to senior citizens.
The centre was established to address issues of children who had nowhere to go in the afternoon and had no food at home.
When we started we discovered that most children were coming from child-headed households, some orphaned and others were taking care of their grandparents and could not attend school regularly.
