We are working to meet the needs of the East African communities that we serve.

Abuse and violence

Fear reigns in many communities. Many children grow up in abusive homes with no one to help them. Girls and young women are often forced to undergo female genital mutilation and into child marriage. 

Extreme Poverty

Lack of healthcare causes many women to die in childbirth. Preventable diseases kill young children. Children have no opportunity to go to school and end up as child laborers. Poverty creates hopelessness and despair.

Broken Families

Many children have lost parents due to death or abandonment and are living on the streets or in abusive situations. Even in loving families, parents struggle to provide for their children’s most basic needs.
