Helping to provide for our children’s physical needs is a heartfelt matter in our organisation.

We strive to create a safe space for our children.

It is our desire to serve, equip and empower both children and parents.

We are creating an atmosphere of love.

Who we are

We are a dedicated group of individuals who believe that above and beyond our families, we can also make an impact in the lives of vulnerable mothers and children in Wellington and its surroundings. For us it is a calling to be the hands and feet of Jesus and to share God’s love in our community.

What we do

Our main focus is to caring, feeding and teaching 160 children between the ages of 3 and 6 years. These children cannot afford to be in a day care, creche or preschool and are left to play in the street or surrounding areas where they can get hurt or be abused…

Feeding Program

We are able to provide over 150 children with breakfast and lunch twice a week. Meals are also served during the June and December holidays.

Clothing Program

The project envisages the collection of used or pre-loved children’s clothes and then distributes it to the families in need.

Discipleship Program

In this program we focus to connect with children and create an atmosphere of learning.

Special Needs Program

As a tutor for children with special needs, Elra Smit joined Moms-for-Wellington to be involved with adults with intellectual disability.

Bright Star (First Light)

First Light on BrightStar was designed as an introduction to the BrightStar Life Skills Programme. Facilitator Margaux Reitzma presents this course to all of our Community Volunteers.

Basic First Aid

It’s a fact that a practical knowledge of first aid can save lives. A basic first aid course is attended by our volunteers to be prepared for emergencies at home or play. Simple hands-on knowledge of basic first aid can make a difference in an emergency.

Toddler Development Programs

On Monday, Wednesday and Friday’s we focus on school readiness. Children who do not have a school placement for grade R are invited to Miss Loretta’s “Little Jewels” class, where she focuses on developing skills necessary for Grade 1.

Shine Course

Shine is an 8 week course for women that helps to develop an understanding of her own personal worth, strength and purpose and realize the potential within her to live her best life.

These children are often…
