Nazareth House is a non-profit organisation (NPO 038-257) in South Africa which provides specialised care to children and the elderly. Its core business is related to the care of children and elderly residents who have been abused, neglected, abandoned, and exposed to domestic violence, substance abuse, living on the streets, etc.
Nazareth House is registered as a Child and Youth Care Centre as well as a Home for elderly residents with the Department of Social Development.
Nazareth House does receive some funding from the Department to provide these services, however, these funds do not cover all the expenses of the organisation and as such 70% of its running costs need to be fundraised (sponsored / donated).
