Catherine Robson Child and Youth Care Centre

Catherine Robson Child and Youth Care Centre Committed to ensuring the growth and welfare of the children in our care Greetings Catherine Robson Management

The Catherine Robson Child and Youth Care Centre is situated in 1 Joubert Street, Vereeniging. This home was established during the 1950s to take in children in need of care and to take care of them. The Children’s Home provides a home for approximately 76 children between ages 4 and 18 years. The children link with local schools such as the Laerskool Handhawer, Hoërskool Gimnasium, Eureka and Kru

gerlaan School. The children’s normal needs are provided for, namely clothing, well-balanced meals, warm beds and recreation facilities such as television, a swimming pool and a well-equipped playground. Spiritually the children are encouraged to maintain a personal trusting relationship with the Lord Jesus. Group work and personal discussions are presented with the children by the social worker to address the heartache of the past and acquire new life skills. All the children in the children’s home are assigned to the care of the Children’s Home by means of a court order, amongst others due to poverty at their parental home, child neglect and maltreatment, death of parents and inability of parents to fulfill their obligations towards their children. The members of staff constantly strive to create a normal homely warm and loving environment for the children so that they can develop into balanced young adults. The staff attempt to create a feeling of self-worth and pride in spite of the negative backgrounds. Several congregations, individuals and businesses of the community are proud to be associated with the Children’s Home. Interested new friends of the Children’s Home are invited to visit us and become involved in this beautiful institution of the community. The need for especially weekend and holiday parents is always huge; hence the invitation to become involved and to make a difference in a child’s life.

Wrapped in Love ❤️

Elke kind by ons het ’n persoonlike gehekelde of gebreide kombers ontvang, met hul naam daarop. Soveel liefde, tyd en gebede is in elke steek van hierdie komberse ingeweef, en elke kombers is so uniek soos elkeen van ons kosbare kinders.

Baie dankie aan elke persoon wat ’n bydrae gemaak het, julle het nie net komberse gegee nie, maar warmte, liefde en ’n gevoel van behoort.

Ons kinders voel ekstra geliefd nadat hulle die spesiale boodskap agter hul persoonlike kombers gehoor het. Dankie dat julle deel is van ons dorp wat help om kinders veilig, warm en geliefd te laat voel. 💙

VBC - Vaal Business Cooperation

About VBC:

The Vaal Business Cooperation (VBC) is a non-profit organization driven by action since 2019, built to uplift, protect, and strengthen the Vaal. Founded on the support of local business, VBC has grown through the commitment of both larger contributors and the small businesses that stood behind it from day one. It is a business-backed force focused on making a real difference where it matters most.

About Isabel:

At the center of VBC’s daily operations is Isabel, the Operational Supervisor and one of the key people who keeps the organization moving forward. Isabel is passionate, committed, and highly effective. She is the kind of person who does not let things stall. She gets things done. Her role is critical in driving operations, coordinating efforts, and turning VBC’s vision into visible action on the ground.

You may well see Isabel and her team out in the community, whether repainting road lines, repairing potholes, running the Vaal CCTV project, or neatening up intersections. She is hands-on, approachable, and actively involved in the work being done. If you do come across her on the road, feel free to stop by and have a chat.

Growing Support:

VBC already receives support from contributors such as MTEC, CBI, Sekuriteit Sonder Grense, and Eskom & Colts Group, together with the loyal backing of smaller businesses in the community since the inception of VBC. That support has helped build a strong foundation. The next step is to unlock bigger opportunities by engaging larger untapped corporations that have the capacity to help VBC expand its reach and deepen its impact across the Vaal.

Why it matters:

Supporting VBC is not simply a donation. It is an investment in a stronger, safer, and more sustainable Vaal. It is backing an organization that is rooted in the community, built on action, and driven by people who are committed to creating real results.

How to Get Involved:

Be part of the change. Whether through funding, sponsorship, partnership, or direct support, your contribution can help VBC drive real impact in the Vaal. As a Section 18A-approved organization, qualifying donations may be tax deductible, and the relevant documentation can be provided to donors.

Ons wag nog vir ons subsidie en bevind onsself in ’n tyd van spanning en baie gebed, waar ons elke dag plan moet maak om seker te maak ons kinders kom niks kort nie.

En toe… ontvang ons ’n boodskap wat ons stil laat staan.

Mei maand se kruideniersware is geskenk. ’n Groot vleisdonasie is ook ontvang. En boonop vra hulle: “Hoe kan ons nóg help?”

Ons kan dit nie met logika verklaar nie. Al wat ons weet, is dat die Here die regte mense op ons pad stuur, op presies die regte tyd.

Ons harte loop oor van dankbaarheid. Dankie vir elkeen wat help dra, help gee en help om ’n verskil te maak in ons kinders se lewens. 🤍
