Let us remember these young ones of ours, our children, if you are touched you can visit them and see them and greet them and also if you want no. The phone enter into their wall and may the God of heaven do good for you. Helping an orphan is to bless yourself and I don't have to be blessed dear malindi Kenya
The current situation is not good at all coz most people who
have bn well wishers and supporters of the home claim
corona has affected them negatively.So being a manager i
have to look for another alternative to make our kids ok.With
the support of my Director we are trying our best.we have
atotal number of 46 kids from age 3months and above,26 boys
and 20 girlsIts not easy,our institution does not have a
donor,we relay mostly on locals for its running.the challenge
we are facing now is how to pay rent,buy food,education and
daily up keeps.Anyway God is faithfull my dear sister.welcome
and feel free to ask,help,pray and donate to usHeart Children's Home was started on the 25th of May, 2005 by Mama Nuru Said with 7 children operating from a rental house.

The home now has 46 children as young as 2 months old. We are supporting children in various education levels: Kindergarten, primary,secondary levels and some university level, As per now we are proud despite all ups and downs we have managed to educate -
1 quantity surveyor
3 Electricians
1 Blacksmith
2 salonist & beutucians
1 admisntrator
1 pilot
1 Aeronotic engineer
1.Plant operator/driver
1 Music artist and
1 girl doing ICT


we have 1 girl who scored grade B she has to join university but we still lack sponsorship for her.

1boy is yet to do electrical wiring.

1 girl is also waiting to join salon and beauty college but the challenge still remains funds are not on our side.

we have also 1physical handicaped child he cant walk, we have been sending him to a Mombasa hospital, he got a referal to a Nairobi hospital doctors are doing their best to manage his situation but it is also quit expensive however we have made a bigger step regarding his medical

Due to very taugh economy in Kenya almost everything is now sold at double price, we are going through cevere financial crisis at the orphanage, we are calling upon sponsors and donors / well-wishers to help us facilitate the day to day running of the home.

The home has been operating without sufficient donors, we have been relying on wellwishers who visit at times once or twice in life time to donate food, chothes and some help to pay maybe one or 2bills

The children have alot of needs like food, medical, school fees, clothing, salaries for staff, house rent and utilities.

This has not been quit easy to operate without finances but we started a small layer chicken project at least in a day we are able to collect 1 to 3 trays of eggs that can assist in solving small matters, one challange with this project is feeding the chicken and protect them from infections so sometimes we end up using their own production to feed them since the project is still small with 50layers.

It is our wish to have this project expanded so that we can be self relient.
It is also our prayer to have our own houses instead of renting. As per the new policies the government recomendetion is for children to be raised in foster care programs and have life as families and not institutions, this means they should have life as a community instead where by one mother goes to live with a few number of children and they become her children, another mother given some few children and live with them as her own this will require us build about 6 family houses but slowly slowly, The house we are shall remain as a rescue centre and a donation centre and the office as well but it will be wise to have the center in our own land where we will not pay Rent as well, it is also our wish to have boreholes and solar panels to avoid paying high water and electricity bills. Not so soon but the government is bringing new regulations that children's home will be converted to rescue or something else in order to serve children in better way. That why they have come with foster care and adoption option so that kids can be brought up family manner . With mother and father figure in the house . Foster care will be renewed every year for two years then you can get adoption easy way then adoption is life program that child will be yours . As orphanage we are thinking to construct two house then we start with our staff members to do foster care program. We are having our first training on for foster care program then we get registered for foster care this will mean even after closure of homes can still run as foster institution.Hallo Family. Hope we are all fine. We are sorry to disapoint you this today, we might not be able to send our dearest Sharon Wavinya to Daystar university, we have tried to look for scholarship funds and the news we are geting she cannot benefit while in a private university, we have been up and down to secure a chance in any public university that has not been easy but maybe "she might get" Jkuat with a change of course starting from Diploma and move slowly to her Dgree level if ONLY she gets considered there.We have to send her to Nairobi to make all the possible ways ensure that all succeeds and are back to you as our family to help us with finances as we work it out to her success. any donation will be appreciated.Good morning ,it is our big hope you are doing good ,we are also doing good at the orphanage .
