Supporting Orphans & Vulnerable Children
Our Charity, Our Community
Why Rehoboth, Namibia?
Namibia is one of the least populated countries on the planet and is situated northwest South Africa. With just over 2 million people in a country much larger than the UK, over 50 percent live below the poverty line. The gap between the rich and the poor is one of the world’s largest; poverty amongst plenty. The impact of HIV and difficult social issues means that there are many orphans and vulnerable children.
Rehoboth is a town of 21,000 inhabitants located in the center of the country and is home to some of the world’s poorest people. Hope for Rehoboth is a UK based charity that funds and supports this crucial work with children.

The story so far
Milly Bock had a vision to create something which could reach out to the vast number of orphans and vulnerable children within her community. Milly opened up an after school club in 2011, in her home town of Rehoboth, allowing children an alternative to being on the streets. With no funding and no premises Milly grew her vision from nothing. The club quickly grew in numbers to near 100 children meeting together in a church hall.
In 2013, two of the now trustees “Catherine and Matthew” went out to visit Milly to see for themselves what the project was doing. Seeing that Milly and her husband were funding the whole idea themselves raised questions as to how this project could be sustainable. Milly wanted to create a safe place for these children where they could be fed and nurtured.
This prompted the birth of the charity!
