On 6 June 2026, Tongaat Child and Family Welfare proudly launched our new Safe House, a dedicated place of protection, care and hope for vulnerable mothers and children facing crisis situations.
This launch marks an important milestone in our ongoing commitment to protecting children, strengthening families and supporting those who need help during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.
For decades, Tongaat Child and Family Welfare has served the Tongaat community through child protection services, family support, counselling, foster care support and intervention programmes. Every day, our team is faced with situations where children and families need urgent assistance, safety and compassionate care.
The opening of our Safe House allows us to respond more effectively to mothers and children affected by abuse, neglect, domestic violence and trauma. It provides a secure space where they can receive emergency shelter, emotional support, guidance and access to further care while longer-term solutions are being arranged.
This Safe House is more than a facility. It is a place where healing can begin. It is a place where dignity is restored. It is a place where vulnerable mothers and children can feel protected, heard and supported.
We are deeply grateful to every donor, partner, stakeholder, community member and supporter who helped make this vision a reality. Your contribution has helped create a safe space that will make a meaningful difference in the lives of those who need it most.
The launch of our Safe House is a reminder of what can be achieved when a community comes together with compassion and purpose. As Tongaat Child and Family Welfare, we remain committed to serving, protecting and empowering children and families in our community.
Together, we can continue building a safer, more caring future for every child and family who turns to us for help.
