«Maison Béthanie» is a non-profit humanitarian association set up in 2000 by Sister Victoire, a Togolese member of the Resurrection of Lazarus of Bethany fraternity in Togo, and who was affected by the poverty and abandonment of children in Lomé.
The home takes in orphaned, destitute and/or abandoned children. They receive comprehensive care in terms of food, health, schooling and the beginnings of a vocational training.

Today, 62 destitute children benefit from the support of Maison Béthanie: 39 children live on site in the Maison itself; the others still live with their families and need financial and nutritional support. The children who have come of age cannot stay at Bethany House for the time being. This is why some of them receive financial support for accommodation, but often also for food and finance. To help these young people find a job, one of the projects is to support their vocational training, by extending the reception area, creating studios, a restaurant, a sewing and batik workshop, a hairdressing salon, etc. In this way, the skills of each individual will be developed.

The objectives of Maison Béthanie are to promote and protect children’s rights, to provide them with a suitable environment, to ensure their schooling and to offer them psycho-social support, so that they can integrate into an independent adult life in the long term.
