Serving Orphaned and Vulnerable Children

The San community, re-settled in Drimiopsis Namibia in 1991, lost its ancestral land-based way of life. The result was isolation from mainstream society, unemployment, hopelessness, despair, food insecurity, and lack of access to education, with many children orphaned and vulnerable due to HIV/AIDS.

The drought in Southern Africa in 2024, the worst in 100 years, is expected to affect 24 million people. The Omaheke region, where CSN’s work is located, is declared to have the highest rate of child malnutrition and child death due to starvation in the country. CSNS is doing all it can to help the hungry children.

We invite you to explore our website to learn about our food programs, residential childcare facility (the Mother House), Sanctuary gardens, and future plans to serve more of the community’s most vulnerable children. Together, we can transform lives!
