Salvazione Christian School: A Beacon of Hope in Johannesburg
Since its founding in 1991, Salvazione Christian School has stood as a shining light offering hope and opportunity to the underprivileged children of Mayfair West and surrounding areas in Johannesburg, South Africa. As a registered independent institution, Salvazione receives modest government subsidies to provide top-quality, affordable education to children from Slovo Park informal settlement, as well as the nearby communities of Brixton, Crosby, Langlaagte, Soweto, and Roodepoort.

A Partnership for Mental Wellbeing
In a meaningful partnership that ran from November until the end of 2023, the Pranic Energy Healing Outreach Program united with Salvazione Christian School to promote mental health and well-being among students of all ages. Twice monthly, our dedicated, educated volunteers visited the school to engage the children through mindfulness, yoga, martial arts and age-appropriate discussions designed to nurture self-awareness, emotional balance, and mental stability.
