Lambano Sanctuary was birthed in response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in South Africa. We opened 4 Homes permanently caring for 30 orphans. With a history of rehabilitating 85% of these little lives, we then expanded our services to cater for children with life-threatening and life-limiting illnesses.

Lambano has over 24 years’ experience in Children's Medical & Palliative Care. Our in-patient unit consists of 16 beds and is run by well-trained inter-disciplinary team.

We've had over 50 000 patient interventions from the year 2009-2024

From 2001 to 2009 Lambano Sanctuary Homes assisted 166 children.

May 5th, 2001, Lambano opened its doors. Twelve tiny souls, each carrying stories of loss and resilience, found love, safety, and a place to call home.

Sister to Lyn Croote, mother to 30 little children, Vivian became the glue that held Lambano together.

Est. 2001 Lambano Sanctuary is a public Medical Step-Down Hospice with the key focus on Palliative Care for Children and Adolescents suffering from Life-threatening and Life-limiting illnesses.
