Heartlands Baby Sanctuary

An event of excellence

Playing it Forward at De Zalze Golf course:

25^th October 2024

 

A little bit about Heartlands:

Heartlands Baby Sanctuary, in Somerset West, is a residential (24 hour, 7 days a week) safe care facility that opened its doors 9 years ago. The facility aims to provide safety and protection for children who desperately need it. These are children who have endured unimaginable abuse, neglect, and abandonment, or who may have disabilities that make them even more vulnerable.

 

Throughout the years, we have been able to provide a home – like environment, to help make a positive impact on the lives just under 400 children. We have developed specialised programs to address their unique needs during their stay with us, and we have made remarkable differences. Witnessing how these children flourish and find happiness when they are shown love, care, and safety has been both heartbreaking, however, more heartwarming.

 

Children who get a healthy start to life in the 1^st 1 000 days and beyond are:

• 10 times more likely to overcome life threatening childhood diseases
• More likely to complete nearly 5 more grades in school
• More likely to go on to earn 21% more in wages as adults
• More likely to have healthier families of their own
