Description of Charity:

Shan Childrens' Home came into existence on the 1st of July 2005. It is a home for children from poor or homes where their health, educational and emotional needs are not met. Some have been abandoned by their parents while others have suffered various forms of neglect.

The main objective is to provide a temporary home for a period of three years or so, with view to rehabilitation and eventually to reunite them with their families. Our mission is to rebuild broken lives and to provide them with an environment that ensures good health, education and a bright future.

Their vision is to see struggled families and their children stabilized and become beneficial to society.

They hope to provide the children under their care the following facilities:-
1. Residential Care
2. Remedial Teaching As Appropriate
3. Medical Care
4. Counseling

6. Home-Visits / Parental Support
