Marang House was founded to provide medical care in a non-institutional environment to South Africa’s seriously ill children. Many children in South Africa who suffer from life-threatening diseases do not have the home-environments that will facilitate their recuperation and restoration to normal health. This lack of a suitable environment results in young children living permanently in government hospitals, which is not only unnecessary but also has a negative impact on their survival and future health.
Marang House is a successful non-profit organization caring for these ill children by providing them with a stable home-environment including a family setting, twenty-four hour medical care, regular monitoring and hospital visits, nutritious meals and lots of love. Marang House is a registered non-profit organization (006-182 NPO) and has been approved as a public benefit organization (PBO 930 003 724).
