Durbanville Kinderhuis - Functions and events


Durbanville Children’s Home hosts various fundraising events and functions throughout the year in order to raise much needed funds for the Home and to create an awareness of the role the Children’s Home plays in the community. As a non-profit community organisation, the Children’s Home depends on the generosity and support of its community as well as businesses.
