Durbanville Children’s Home

We proudly provide continuous visual care to the 144 children of Durbanville Children’s Home.

We provide annual full eye examinations, spectacles and or visual therapy to the children. Children who need further management are referred to Tygerberg Hospital.

We are proud to be affiliated with such a worthy institution and the children of Durbanville Children’s Home holds a dear place in our hearts.

Durbanville Children’s Home has been taking care of children in need for the past 139 years, since it opened its doors in 1883. It focuses on the care, development and rehabilitation of emotionally traumatised children through a process of therapeutic intervention and re-uniting them with their families if possible.

However, the home receives a subsidy of only 32% of their total expenditure from the government and is therefore dependent on local and foreign communities for funds and donations (NPO 011-891). If you would like to make a donation to the children’s home, please contact them at dch@dchome.org.za
