Project hosted by

Good Samaritan Children’s Home and Rehabilitation Centre was founded in 1991 with a mission to facilitate holistic care for vulnerable children by enhancing their growth and development through provision of shelter, education and other basic needs. The children are victims of teenage pregnancy, child abuse or torture, orphans and those infected by HIV/AIDS. The home offers shelter to over 300 children who are of between 8months to 18 years of age. Depending on their age, the infants (8 months to 2 years old) stay at the home and are looked after by their caregivers while those who are 3yrs to 6 years of age attend a kindergarten, which is at the home as they are prepared to join primary school.

The other children are supported through uniforms and school fees to join different public primary and secondary school near the home. Since its establishment, the home has supported over 4000 orphans and vulnerable children from different parts of Nairobi city mainly from the streets and slums. The children are transformed and reconnected back to their extended families, those who don’t have any family are assisted to get a job and start their own life and always welcomed back to the home in case of any problem. Apart from children’s welfare development, The Home engages in a number of activities for purposes of self-sustainability such as zero grazing and livestock farm unit, which generate income for the home and provide meat and milk for the children
