Children of Strength (Watoto Wenye Nguvu in Swahili) was created as a means to help children in the Kilimambogo area of Kenya, about 60 miles northeast of Nairobi, overcome the devastating affects on their lives from the HIV/AIDS epidemic and widespread poverty. The program supports approximately 400 orphans and other vulnerable children through individual sponsorships which provides food, clothing, education, and medical care.
Personal care and attention is given to each sponsored child to ensure that he or she receives all care necessary to live a healthy, secure life and to offer opportunity for education.
We also support and direct a feeding program in nine schools in the Kilimambogo area. Currently, we serve over 5,500 children a noontime meal each school day. This program provides an essential service not only to the children but to the community as a whole.
Our goal is to educate and equip this generation of young people to understand their responsibility in their world and give them opportunities to make a better life for themselves, their families and their community.
