Over the last 91 years this organisation served and continues to serve the communities in Bethlehem, Paul Roux, Clarens, Fouriesburg and Rosendal. In 1926, the organisation became affiliated to Child Welfare South Africa however it remains an independent NPO responsible for its own running costs, funding, projects, services, awareness campaigns, and management.

Kopano Ke Matla Charity Organization has made a pledge to help young kids around the community and build future leaders. Please help us by donating blankets.

Child Welfare Bloemfontein was founded in 1914 by a group of volunteers who identified a sincere need for welfare services among poor people. The first social worker was appointed in 1938 to address the needs of families through the rendering of rehabilitation services, supplementary to offering social relief by means of handing out grants and food parcels. In the fifties the social worker's reports reflected the high percentage of children reported because of abuse and neglect. In 1965 a Child Welfare Society was established in Heidedal. In August 1996 the Societies of Child and Family Welfare Bloemfontein and Heidedal amalgamated and took the responsibility to render child protection services in Bloemfontein, Heidedal and Mangaung.
