Home From Home Trust
 South Africa  |  Children/Education

To build a network of homes in communities, and for each one to provide a family structure for the children in its care.

Home from Home Trust was registered in May 2005 and much has been achieved since this date. The Trust was set up by Jane Payne and Pippa Shaper, who had both worked with this model of care for the past five years and saw the profound benefits for orphans and vulnerable children. Believing that this model of care provided a viable alternative to institutionalized child-care, the Home from Home Trust was formed with the support of other interested parties. Home from Home now has ten homes open and is currently caring for 72 children. Several more homes will be opening within the next few months in conjunction with community partners. We also run the Lizo Nobanda Day Care Centre in Harare, Khayelitsha, providing pre-school care for the under 6's, about a third of whom live in Home from Home houses, the others being from the local community. This facility cares for 60 children on a daily basis.
