The St Martin Centre was founded at Boksburg, Gauteng by the late Fr Nicholas Humphreys OP, while Saint Martin was still a blessed, in order to make him known and loved around the world. He wrote letters and counseled people with different needs spiritually and by sending them prayer cards concerning their problems. Where he could he supported them financially. It has had a number of homes, and has been operating from the St Martin Centre in Springs since 1980.
