Since 1998, Exodus Care Centre has been a refuge for people with nowhere else to go β including the homeless, families, the elderly and those living with disabilities.
We provide around 120 people with safe shelter, meals, and essential care to those facing crisis.
We can only do this because people like you refuse to look away.
Every day, people arrive at our doors with nothing β no food, no safety, no hope.
Some are families. Some are elderly. Some are living with disabilities. Some transitioned out of different facilities.
All of them need a second chance.
Who We Help
We support a diverse and vulnerable group of people, including:
Individuals experiencing homelessness
Families in crisis
Elderly individuals with no support
People living with disabilities
Referrals from crisis centres (recognised haven)
Individuals transitioning from mental health institutions
Many of those we help have nowhere else to go.

Help Us Build a Permanent Home
Right now, we operate from rented facilities β limiting how many people we can help.
We are working to secure a permanent property where we can provide long-term shelter, stability and expanded support to those in need.
This space will allow us to:
Build safe, lasting accommodation
Create workshops for skills development and training
Support recovery, independence and dignity
We also plan to develop a small-scale farming system, including a greenhouse and food production, to:
Improve food security
Provide fresh meals
Teach valuable life skills
Our vision is to create a self-sustaining environment where people donβt just survive β they rebuild their lives.
This is more than land β itβs a foundation for hope, dignity, and a second chance
Reaching Beyond Our Walls
Exodus Care Centre extends its support beyond residential care through outreach initiatives in surrounding communities and townships.
Support Our Outreach Work
Our outreach efforts rely on the support of the community. Donations, supplies, and partnerships help us reach people who are still in urgent need.
You can help us extend care beyond our centre and into the communities that need it most.
