Support, Donate, Volunteer
We care for over 160 residents—each with unique needs, dreams, and potential. Think of us as one big home. Everything a household needs, we need too—just multiplied many times over. From daily meals to medical care, clean linens to creative activities, every contribution helps us maintain a safe, nurturing environment where our residents can thrive.
Your support—whether through donations, volunteering, or sponsorship—plays a vital role in sustaining the dignity, health, and happiness of those who call Kungwini home. Together, we can build a community where compassion leads the way and every person is valued.
Daily Needs
We rely on generous contributions to maintain a healthy and happy environment for our residents. Below are the items we use every day:
We rely on daily food donations to nourish our residents—everything from bread and milk to vegetables, meat, and non-perishables keeps our home running.
Personal care items like soap, toothpaste, razors, and towels help our residents maintain dignity, hygiene, and comfort in their everyday lives.
Cleaning products, laundry essentials, and basic tools like mops and brooms are vital to keeping our facilities safe, sanitary, and welcoming.
All types of essential medicines and health items— from flu remedies to vitamins — ensure our residents stay healthy and receive the care they deserve.
Every contribution makes a difference. Whether you choose to make a financial donation, sponsor a resident, support a specific project, or give a donation in-kind your generosity, or even a lasting bequestment in your will, helps us continue our mission. As a token of our appreciation and to acknowledge your support, we can provide a Section 18A tax certificate, allowing you to claim a tax deduction for your contribution as provided by the South African Revenue Service (SARS).
