Remember to join our “Healing Hearts Club”, to help bring joy in the lives of our children, by making sure that their needs are met

Our new Healing Hearts Club makes it easy for you to get involved in helping to fill those lunchboxes. Your commitment to a monthly donation of just R200 provides one child with a sandwich (cheese & tomato, peanut butter or tuna mayonnaise) and juice to take to school every school day for an entire month.

If you can add another R50 for a total monthly gift of R250, we’ll add an apple, banana or naartjie to ‘your’ child’s lunchbox as well!

Part One 💙

At The Johannesburg Children’s Home, we are truly grateful for the kindness and generosity of Hatfield Motor Group and their Ford dealers. 💙🌱 Thanks to their support, our vegetable garden now has a shade netting structure, helping us in our mission of giving our children fresh food, that will nourish them years to come.

Stay tuned for the incredible results 😊👀
