Welcome to Die Lighuis Heidedal, a beacon of hope and transformation in the heart of Bloemfontein’s Heidedal township. As a non-profit organization with a Christian ethos, we are committed to making a real difference in the lives of the community members we serve.

Our Vision

We envision a Heidedal where the warmth of compassion, the strength of unity, and the light of opportunity shine brightly. We strive for a community where families are supported, individuals are empowered, and children grow up with a sense of pride and belonging.
