Thandi House, Pietermaritzburg

Thandi House is a family-based long-term home run by Mark and Rene Morcom. Caring for the broken and forgotten children of our town, giving them the love and a family every child deserves. We care for up to 25 children including young girls faced with unplanned pregnancy.
We view our role as ‘mommy’ and ‘daddy’ as very important in their lives. Who they are and what they will become relies on our ability to give of ourselves to fill their lives with unconditional love, security and the knowing that they belong. We take every child into our family as our own and they will remain with us for as long as they need us. We do not turn children away on their 18th birthday as many other homes do. We give our children support and love at every stage of their lives into adulthood or until they can stand on their own two feet. A family is forever!
