Bethesda Home for Boys, Savannah, GA
America’s oldest children’s home, Bethesda has given deserving children a fresh start since 1740. Boys from age 6 through 12th grade live on campus, sharing classrooms with day students and their lives with caring houseparents. Situated on 650 acres on the Moon River, Bethesda is a place where boys can let go of bad habits, take strides toward new goals, and discover how they can be successful – now and in the future.
