Milele Center for Orphans in Kenya: The child welfare crisis in Kenya is a heartbreaking reality. Teen mothers, victims of sexual violence, and those living in poverty with HIV/AIDS are struggling to care for their newborns. With limited options, many of these young mothers resort to abandoning their babies in the hopes of providing them with a chance at survival. Unfortunately, the few government welfare agencies are unable to accommodate the ever-growing need, leaving these mothers in a state of distress and despair.
Our team recognized the need for a safe and nurturing environment where these mothers can learn invaluable life skills, receive an education, and bond with their babies. Our program exists to empower and support these young women, providing them with the resources and guidance they need to become confident and independent mothers who can provide for themselves and their children.
We offer a safe and welcoming environment for young mothers and
their babies, providing them with a place to call home as they navigate the joys and challenges of motherhood.
We provide a safe and supervised daycare where babies can play and interact with other children while their mothers attend school or take care of other responsibilities.
We offer pre and post-natal classes to help support our community. On our farm, community members learn about sustainable farming practices and how to build a better future for our families.
