About Us
Faith in Action.
Healing Communities.
The Bethesda Fountain of Healing Association (BFOH) is a faith-based, community-driven non-profit organisation dedicated to restoring dignity, healing communities, and creating sustainable socio-economic change across South Africa.
Founded in 2015, BFOH was established to extend the mission of the church beyond its walls - responding to real social and economic challenges faced by individuals, families, and communities. We believe that faith is lived through action, and that lasting change is possible when compassion is paired with accountability.
Our work is delivered through community-led programmes focused on food security, education, health and wellness, and welfare. These initiatives address immediate needs while building resilience, promoting self-reliance, and creating pathways to long-term opportunity.
