Diepsloot

We have a lovely compound in Diepsloot that acts as a place of mentorship, educational support, and refuge as needed. The space has three bedrooms that can sleep up to six children at any given time. The children stay over when extra emotional and mental support is needed or during tests/exams when they require tutoring and educational assistance.  

On the property is a lovely classroom with a little library and music area for the children to expand their horizons and find the educational support they need to succeed in their homework assignments. 

A storage room safely stores all the items of clothing and household goods we receive as donations, ready for the children to “shop” when they are in need of certain items…nothing goes to waste! 

The same storage room acts as a food pantry, filled with non-perishable food items ready to support the families in need at any given time throughout the month. 

The modest courtyard is the perfect place for us to host our after-school tutoring sessions, guardian trainings, and monthly mentorship groups. It also includes a little play area for the little ones to have fun! 

Every child within Hlanganani, regardless of where they live, sees this Dieplsoot house as a place they can come to whenever needed: a secure, safe home filled with care and support. 

We are supporting six families within the Diepsloot/Riversands area, with 10 children under our care.
