The King Childrens Home is a safe house for babies and young children that have been abandoned or abused. It is a non-profit organization based in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. In October of 2008, a baby was abandoned in the bushes near the home of Tracy and Jonathan King just outside East London. Police asked if the Kings could take the baby in for a few days while the case was investigated. The Kings run a local church in the area and their home is known as a safe house in the community. Their lives were so positively impacted through taking in this baby that they started researching and found out that there are many more children in the same situation. Out of their own home, they started the King’s Children’s Home to provide other options for mothers who cannot care for their children.
