Phoenix Child Welfare THE BIRTH OF PHOENIX CHILD WELFARE

In 1976, the initial group of inhabitants settled in the Phoenix area.

The Phoenix Child Welfare, in accordance with its guiding principles, is committed to providing services and resources for the protection of children and preservation of families through developmental programmes in the communities of Phoenix, Mount Moriah The period during 1976 and 1980 saw the fledgling community beset with numerous socio-economic problems, underlined by undeveloped infrastructure and limited facilities. Community volunteers and activists identified the need to establish a Welfare organisation in order to serve the indigent families. The founding members, who were members of the civic organisations, became members of local committees of the Verulam Child & Family Welfare Society. Over the years, the area and the population grew rapidly and by December 1980, the workload had increased to such an extent that Verulam Child & Family Welfare Society could not cope. The South African National Council for Child & Family Welfare, together with the Verulam Child & Family Welfare Society and volunteers from the Phoenix community, took the necessary steps to form an autonomous Child & Family Welfare Society in Phoenix. At a public meeting held in Phoenix under the auspices of Verulam Child & Family Welfare, Phoenix Child & Family Welfare Society was inaugurated on 08 March 1981. Since those initial days, Phoenix Child Welfare has grown to become one of the ten largest welfare organisations in the country. The society is affiliated to Child Welfare South Africa and is a member of Ubuntu Community Chest.

Sweet Dante!

You have been selected by our September charity choice Phoenix Child Welfare, as our 3rd place winner in our September StarBaby Angel's Choice competition!

Congratulations!

Dante's parents: "My baby’s star quality is something you feel the moment you meet him. He has an incredibly endearing personality and a natural light that draws people in. Wherever he goes, people turn to look at him, smile at him and want to interact with him. He has a little aura about him that is simply impossible to ignore. His journey has been remarkable. Born with CPAM, he underwent major surgery at just six months old, where half of his left lung was removed. Yet, despite everything he has been through, he has never lost his sparkle. If anything, his journey has made his beautiful spirit shine even brighter. He is such a joyful, loving and happy baby. His smile brings laughter to everyone around him, and his personality has a way of filling a room with warmth. He has so much heart, so much spirit and an incredible resilience for such a little person. To us, he is so much more than a baby.✨"
