About Us

To provide vulnerable children with a stable, loving home, access to education, healthcare, and emotional support, and the foundation they need to grow into confident, capable adults.

Chance Children's Home was established to provide a safe, nurturing, and family-like environment for children and youth who can no longer remain in their own homes due to abuse, neglect, abandonment, or other circumstances beyond their control.

We are officially registered with the Department of Social Development as a Child and Youth Care Centre, operating in terms of Section 200 of the Children's Act 38 of 2005. This registration ensures that our home meets the legal and care standards required to protect and support the children placed in our care.

A community where every child, regardless of their circumstances, has the opportunity to feel safe, valued, and given a genuine chance at a better future.
