About us

Us
Our Founders - Michael and Jill Carolissen
We first & foremost love God, and have a strong desire to fulfil our God given purpose, and secondly, have always had a passion to care for, empower and disciple, orphans and vulnerable children. A few years back we felt God calling us to leave the workplace and start an organisation that would share The Fathers Heart with these vulnerable, neglected children & help them restore and transform their lives, their families and their God given identity.
