Homes for Kids in South Africa

Transforming lives with love, care and family for children affected by HIV/AIDS

What We Do

Creating loving homes and brighter futures for children in need

The focus of our work is caring for children living with and affected by HIV/Aids, full-time and in a family environment. When a child cannot be looked after by family members or neighbours, he or she is placed via the Magistrate’s Court at the HOKISA Home. A careful assessment of the situation of each child is part of the admission process. Where ever possible, family members are encouraged to keep in touch with the child.
