Holy Cross Child & Youth Care Centre

Holy Cross Child & Youth Care Centre Founded in 1918 in response to children being orphaned during the dreaded ‘Spanish Flu’.

There was a dire need for the children orphaned by the disease to have a caring home. The nuns at Holy Cross Sister's Convent in Parow opened their doors & hearts to all these children - and thus began the Holy Cross Children’s Orphanage. Until the facility was recognised by the state as a Welfare Institution, the financing of the home was the sole responsibility of the Holy Cross Sisters. Today

the Sisters are still fully involved and committed to caring for children and the youth. Today the centre cares for & houses 115 boys & girls ranging between the ages of 18 months to 18 years. The establishment is funded mainly by the Department of Social Development, but relies on donations from some very generous sponsors, both private & corporate in order to keep the centre running.
