Children of Hope children’s homes are designed to function as homes not orphanages.
A home where kids are cared about,
not simply cared for;
A home where the caregivers see what they do as a calling,
not just a job;
A home where staff go beyond investing in the children to
becoming their family.
Building hope and a future for these children begins with the provision of essential resources. The Children of Hope home has modern utilities necessary to contribute to the health and well-being for our children and staff. Safe water, electricity, and sanitation are foundational components to a healthy home, which increases the children’s opportunity to flourish and grow.
Children of Hope children’s home is located in the agricultural village of Kitalale in western Kenya. The home sits on a ten acre plot. Half the property is utilized for home use, a playground and large vegetable garden. The remaining five acres are used for agriculture and livestock. The crops and animals are the primary food supply for the home. Any remaining produce or animals are sold to supplement ongoing operational expenses for the home.
In the process of caring for orphaned children, Children of Hope is also able to contribute to the health of the local community by providing local work and a community playground. We provide caregiver, agricultural and livestock jobs to people within the local community. We also provide a safe playground for community children to enjoy. In all aspects of the Children of Hope ministry, we hope to work with and be a blessing to our local community.
