Loving Family Care

A Real Family Home

The Mount Thomas Children's Home is a vibrant community of 120+ boys and girls. Rather than setting up institutionalized dorms, we group children into "family units" led by dedicated housemothers, ensuring every child receives emotional warmth, personal attention, and a secure environment to recover from trauma.
