Embracing the values of Respect, Sanctity of Life and Love & Care, LITTLE EDEN is a registered non-profit organisation [001-827 NPO and PBO No.930/0000/03] providing life-long care to children and adults with profound intellectual disability, in two custom designed facilities geared to helping them reach their full potential.
Whether it's encouraging Lindelwa to join in and play with the other children ... or teaching Sean how to express his feelings by pointing to smiley faces, ‘going the extra mile’ for our children is the way we live our values of Respect, Sanctity of Life and Love & Care.
Because of the severity of their brain damage, many of our children may not live long lives. But, with your help, we’ll make sure they live happy lives.
Thank you for joining hands with our staff to give these special children the chance to enjoy their time on earth with us.
Every act of kindness – whether it's a cheery 'hello', a comforting hug, a toy to play with, a gentle wash, or tasty treats - adds up to a feeling of being loved and cared for. And that’s the most important thing we can give these special children and adults.
