Our Needs
We come to you today with a request to open your heart to children and battered mothers whom we have in our care. Poor, hungry and homeless, these vulnerable children, battered woman and single mothers as well as rejected elderly and homeless families are in dire need of support. We are a registered NPO with the department of social development, and it is our mission here at Lochvaal Emfuleni Welfare to protect and care for our community’s most vulnerable.
Due to the high increase of abused, battered, neglected mothers and children, single mothers with babies and women the organisation cares for average 155 destitute residents in 2020. As a welfare family care organisation we focus on the accommodation, caring, well-being of these destitute in need. They arrive from situations of domestic violence, staying in the veld for a time, being on the road for days, arriving with nothing or not even fulfilling their basic need.
