Sisters of Nazareth
Nazareth House is more than "home" to our residents, it is a place of peace and enjoyment, safety and hope. Security, dignity, comfort and peace.
The National and Provincial Social Welfare departments, the Children’s Court and the South African Police refer abandoned babies and children to Nazareth House. We currently have 40 babies and children in our care. We are entrusted with caring for their physical, emotional and spiritual needs - we provide 24 hour care, housing, nutritious food, clothing, education, specialised nursing and medication. Some children are only placed with us for short periods as a means of protection in emergency situations, while others are placed with us for the longer term because of their special circumstances.
One man’s rubbish is another man’s treasure! If you are cleaning out, think of us. Everything from second hand clothing, furniture, kitchenware to bric-a-brac is gratefully accepted at our charity shop – where it is sorted, priced and turned into cash to help fund our homes for the aged.
Compared to childcare, caring for the elderly is not a priority for most donors. However, similarly to orphans the elderly are often also abused and abandoned or have no financial resources. This programme provides full-time care to 74 frail elderly in our residences in Vredehoek and Elsies River.
Nazareth House is committed to providing love, nurturing, care and protection for orphans and other vulnerable children. We do this by rendering comprehensive, holistic services to address their physical, psychological, medical, educational, nutritional and social needs as effectively as possible.
