4. Agape Foundation-Charity
The Agape Christian Foundation for Children has a good working relationship with both local and central governments; private and public schools; charities and non-governmental organizations (ONGs). In all things, we conform fully with our legal and moral obligations.
1. The Orphanage - AGAPE House
Our principal aim is recognition that a child needs to be provided with more than food and shelter alone. They need family home cloaked in parental love.
Our desire is that all our children find a home to call own and freedom judge mental preconceptions of being from an orphanage. Hence we always refer to the Agape Family Home.
We are ambitious for all our children to:
*rediscover their value and their potential
*understand God’s love expressed through our Lord Jesus Christ
*get a correct perspective about life and society
*be able to follow a school and University education
*gain qualifications and enter employment
*progress to independent living
The Agape family home environment is underpinned through the presence of residential house parents. The family and their 5 children integrate fully with the home taking part in all activities.
The house parents are supported by a team of devoted people, specialized
in working with children.
Today are 31 children, between 3 and 23 years old living in the family home. Five of these are students at university. The remainder are split
between secondary- high school, gymnasium, primary or kindergarden. Every child matters and each has their own personalized space giving them the privacy they need and freedom to choose the company they want.
2. Agape Kindergarden
Inside Agape Foundation we have 5 kindergarden classes totaling over 130 children. Two of these classes are 8 hour long, and three classes are 4 hours duration. We offer a lunch meal to all children from the kindergarden classes that come from poor families in the town.
The kindergarden area is very expansive, pleasant and well equipped, as is Agape House.
3.Agape Foundation - Cultural and Instructive Centre
Agape Foundation organizes events and festivals, including music concerts, symposiums, meeting with personalities, conferences and field trips to venues of historic, cultural, moral or spiritual significance.
The Foundation also organizes instructive and educational activities to unleash and develop the talents and gifts of our children. This includes Bible studies literature groups, sports, music lessons, computer studies, languages, etc. The children and young people that benefit from this rich programme are not limited to those from Agape House, but also open to those living in the surrounding town and villages.
3. Agape Foundation-Charity
Agape Foundation offers material and practical help to people in need. This includes families with many children, sick people, disabled people and others. In an average year this includes distributing over 20.000 kg of food, clothes and equipment to disabled people.
