Mental Health Day Centre fosters the reinsertion for those living with mental disorders. Moreover, it provides care and support to children and adults living with a mental condition.
In Africa, the cultural believes reject mental disorders. Therefore, mentally ill people often suffer from social exclusion and stigma.
However, at Benito Menni Day Centre we provide support and assistance to children and young adults with mental dissabilities. Furthermore, we foster their personal development involving them in classes and ongoing projects. This allows them to feel part of a group, to take responsibilities for their own and to learn new abilities.

We are committed to shape a world where mental health patients are socially accepted and cared for, without excuses.
Any donation is of great help to continue our mission of bringing hospitality and care to those who need it the most.
