We believe every child should have a home, an education and a foundation for the future.

In Africa in the beginning of the 21st century, increasing numbers of children have no home, because their parents and extended families have died from HIV/AIDS and related diseases. In Western Kenya, few children have access to effective education, and thus little or no hope for a fruitful future. Destitute children, with no resources for school fees or supplies, and no family support, are even more at risk.

We can help many of these children. The Nambale Magnet School will provide more than a home and an education – it will be a center of stability in an impoverished society facing great economic, social and political challenges. The School will nurture the hearts and spirits of children as well as their minds, and be a place where they can find their center, use their gifts, realize their innate abilities, and  achieve a true sense of purpose.

Will you be part of the extended family for a child who has lost everything. Will you help us continue our Mission: To provide a home, an education and hope for a fruitful life for children orphaned or made vulnerable by AIDS in Western Kenya.

This is staggering: Every 14 seconds a child is orphaned in sub-Saharan Africa. The UN estimates that in Kenya, some 1.3 million are living with AIDS, and an estimated 1.1 million children ages 1-17 are orphaned because of HIV/AIDS. “Orphaned” means even extended family members have died; these kids have no one. Millions more have lost one parent, or live in homes with family members who are ill or dying, and have no resources.

Increasing numbers of children have no home, because their parents and extended families have died from HIV/AIDS and related diseases. Destitute children, with no resources for school fees or supplies, and no family support, are even more at risk. Many are forced to live on the streets, resorting to theft and prostitution to survive. Their desperation is overwhelming; one child confided to her teacher that one day she would commit suicide and escape the problems of her life.
