Bethany Home

Bethany, a non-profit organisation in Bertrams, is a shelter and place of rehabilitation for abused women and their children.

 

Our mission is to create a caring environment in which women and children find God's love, healing and teaching and to integrate each woman back into society.

 

In the past year, we have assisted approximately 50 abused women and their children offering them a safe haven and place of rehabilitation. We accommodate up to 50 women and children for approximately 12 - 14 months each.

At Guild Cottage we welcome 18 girl survivors of sexual abuse who represent all demographics in South Africa. Sexual abuse in South Africa as elsewhere cut across all cultural, religious and socio-economic classes.

 

The girls are removed from their abusive circumstances and are referred to Guild Cottage by the courts. Our team of experts provide each child with appropriate therapy and help them to heal.

 

The aim is to assist these vulnerable girls to become well rounded and productive members of society.
