Jakaranda Kinderhuis in Pretoria, hou sedert 2010 in Desember ’n Liggiefees wat strek vanaf 1Desember tot 31 Desember. Die personeel, kinders en donateurs versier 21 huise en die terrein by die Kinderhuis met miljoene kersliggies, en maak dan die terrein oop vir die publiek om dit te kom besigtig oor die feestyd. Daar word ook ’n verskeidenheid van vermaaklikheid aangebied soos straatmusikante, sangers, orkeste, laser vertonings en verskeie ander vermaaklikheid gebeure
gedurende die maand. Die fees hoogtepunt is gewoonlik ons groot gospel konsert waar daar van
Suid-Afrika se top kunstenaars optree.
Die “Liggie Roete” strek oor ongeveer 800 meter en ons skep ‘n fantasie wêreld en ’n familie
vriendelike omgewing met veilige parkering wat deurentyd beman is deur sekuriteitswagte. Ons
vra ’n klein donasie by die hek as toegang fooi en lok jaarliks duisende besoekers na die terrein.
From the 1st to the 31st of December the Jakaranda Children’s Home in Pretoria hosts their annual
Christmas Light Festival since 2010. Our personnel, children and sponsors decorate the 21 houses
as well as the rest of the premises with millions of Christmas lights. The decorated children’s home is
then opened to the public during the festive season. During the festival a big selection of
entertainment is provided such as street musicians, singers, bands, laser shows and various other
types of entertainment during the month. Our gala evening is usually our big concert with some of
South Africa’s top artists performing.
The “Light Route” stretches over about 800 meters, and we truly create a fantasy world of
Christmas lights that is family friendly with safe parking and security is provided. There is a small
entrance fee of R10 at the gate end we have thousands of visitors each year.

Our MAIN PURPOSE of the festival is NOT TO PLACE EMPHASIS ON FUNDRAISING but to
emphasise the REAL CHRISTMAS MESSAGE to our children in the home and secondly to the
public.
To create awareness to the work that we do at the Jacaranda Children's Home with the
children that was placed in our care. To recruit new sponsors and donations for the future,
and to attract as many people as possible to the Children’s Home. To launch an awareness
campaign to find people to become involved in the care and education of our children
either financially or as volunteers.
The funds raised are used to care for all our children, to successfully execute our planning
for the year ahead and for the achievement of the objectives of each house individually at
the children’s home.
