Onthatile General Fund

We are busy at Onthatile and this fund covers the day-to-day needs of our ministry. This includes school curriculum and supplies, teacher salaries, school desks and furniture, activities and lessons for our children, and so much more. Giving to our General Fund will help our ministry continue to serve the children in our care and expand our ministry to welcome even more children into the Onthatile Family.

Building Projects

Onthatile is growing! What started as a small baby home caring for just 2 babies in the Kirby’s home, has grown into 5+ homes on and off-property where children are cared for and loved. These homes have been built or remodeled to provide a loving, stable home for South African orphans and vulnerable children. We are currently raising funds to build a foster home in Malawi and for renovations and upgrades to existing properties.

Supplies and Donations

As you can imagine, it takes a lot of supplies to run a children’s ministry! If you are local and would like to donate physical supplies, please contact us to set up a time to deliver. If you are in the US or elsewhere, the best way to donate items is by donating financially and having the items purchased here. An unreliable postal system and expensive customs prices make shipping and receiving packages complicated.
