Serving Orphaned and Vulnerable Children

We are a registered Canadian charity which supports Children’s Sanctuary Namibia, a registered welfare organization in Namibia which assists orphaned and vulnerable children in Drimiopsis, in the Kalahari Constituency in the Omaheke Region of Namibia.

Our vision is to make a difference, not only in the lives of children, but also empowering marginalized communities in providing care for their young ones. The San community, one of the oldest indigenous groups in Southern Africa, was resettled in Drimiopsis Namibia in 1991, a move that led to the loss of their 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.

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