Dr. Ericka Ward and team visit
We had the privilege and honor to receive Dr. Ericka Ward, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Program Coordinator – Riverside Health Systems, together with her team at our home. The team, from the US, arrived with open hearts and a desire to connect with our girls.
The day unfolded so beautifully as the guests spent time with the girls, sharing their life stories, triumphs, and challenges. Their experiences resonated deeply, inspiring our girls to dream bigger and reach for the stars.
But it wasn’t all serious conversations. Laughter echoed in the room as everyone joined in song and dance. The joy of shared rhythm transcended language barriers, creating bonds that would last beyond this fleeting day. We all had the opportunity to worship the Lord together and spend time in prayer.
Our Story

Get Involved
You can be part of a great initiative
Sponsor a child
By sponsoring a child, you give them an opportunity to go through basic education and secure a future. Your support will ensure that they have school fees and other essential items that they require in school.
Make a Donation
Aside from sponsorship, we also need support in running our rescue center in Kiserian, Kenya. We currently provide shelter for 32 girls who face the danger of FGM and forced early marriage. We depend on well wishers like you for their upkeep.
With Your Help, We are Making The World a Better Place
Your participation is vital to all our girls and boys for them to secure a sustainable future. A single hand may not manage to make a seasonable impact, but there is so much power when we come together.
