About Us

Marang A Letsatsi is a non-profit organisation committed to transforming the lives of orphans and vulnerable children in Khayelitsha. Through holistic programs that support emotional, educational, and social well-being, we create a safe and nurturing environment for children to grown and blossom. 


At Marang A Letsatsi, we are dedicated to providing psychosocial support to orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) and teenage girls in Khayelitsha. Through our carefully designed support groups and awareness programs, we aim to promote healing, resilience, and empowerment for children and young people navigating life's most difficult challenges


Our psychosocial support groups offer children a safe and nurturing space to talk about their loss, grief, and sadness. We believe that sharing their experiences with peers of a similar age can help children feel a sense of belonging, allowing them to heal emotionally and grow intellectually.

MISSION

To support, encourage, protect, and promote values that equip children to become successful, compassionate, and resilient members of their communities.

VISION

To create a community where every child has access to care, education, and support, enabling them to live fulfilling lives despite the challenges they face.

Our approach

  1. While our support groups are not therapy or a substitute for personal counselling, they play a vital role in promoting emotional growth. We equip children with knowledge and tools to process their grief while promoting key signs of resilience, such as:

  • Secure relationship with caregivers and family.
  • A sense of belonging and strong personal memories.
  • Self-confidence and creativity.
  • A positive value and belief system.
