ROBIN HILLS – Oasis Haven strives to create a family home for children in their care.
Oasis Haven in Robin Hills prides themselves in creating a family home for children who have no other home. An open-day for teachers, donors and the general public was held on 19 February.
Ivan Achiume, the development manager of Oasis Haven, said that they host the open day to make members of the public aware of the services that the home offers. “Many people are aware of us, but they don’t know how the house looks,” said Achiume.
