Who we are
Inspiring Hope
Hannah’s Sanctuary is founded to offer hope to those affected by poverty or wrong choices that has led to them dropping out of education or training. The consequences of dropping out of education or training can include socioeconomic disadvantages, ostracization and mental health issues.
Hannah’s Sanctuary will seek to offer hope and support for young persons in these situations by facilitating a return to education/training and providing Christian discipleship to affected individuals.
OUR VISION
To provide support and offer hope to those who find themselves with little life options due to poverty, challenging situations or wrong choices.
OUR MISSION
To provide access to education, training and childcare where appropriate so that life chances and opportunities can be improved for affected young persons.
​
At the core of what we do is what we call ‘Godly Identity’. This is based around teachings to make people aware of who they are in Christ. It encompasses topics such as ‘Identity in Christ’, ‘Integrity of God’s word’, God’s kind of love’ and ‘The Power of Godly Relationships’.
