Creating a world of comfort and joy for
bed-ridden, sick, and abandoned children.
A world where no child feels alone.
1. Comprehensive Daily Care - We ensure the comfort and health of sick and bedridden children through attentive hygiene, tailored medical treatments, and nutritious meals. Our dedicated team prioritizes the fundamental needs of our patients to create a nurturing and secure environment.
2. Innovative and Engaging Activities - To enhance the quality of life, we incorporate activities like virtual reality experiences, social and community immersion, and educational programs. These activities allow children to explore new worlds, interact socially, and engage in stimulating learning experiences from their hospital beds.
3. Palliative Care and Emotional Support - We address the emotional and psychological needs of our patients by helping them discover their identity and purpose, creating a serene and calming environment, and promoting independence. Our goal is to ensure each child feels peaceful, relaxed, and in control of their care and daily activities.
Helping vulnerable children feel safe, well, and loved.

Kioko's grandson was diagnosed with cancer three years ago. She was devastated, and didn't know how they would be able to afford the treatment.
But her grandson fought hard though out his sponsored care at our hospital, and today he is finally cancer free! Kioko is overjoyed, and so grateful that he is able to come home with her.
She knows that this would not have been possible without the support of our beloved supporters, and is deeply thankful for all the love and donations they have received. This duo's story is one of hope and determination in the face of adversity, and they are an inspiration to us all.
This beautiful girl has a mother who loves her enough to fight for their future. But she was born into difficult circumstances as her mother was a young orphan herself, but she never gave up on her.
Thanks to her determination, she was able to find our hospital and her daughter is now thriving in our care. One day, they will be reunited and they will finally be able to experience the love and togetherness of their family. But for now, they need your help.
The mother is still unable to support her precious baby while she attends school. By sponsoring her place at our infant protection program, this little one will receive daily love and care and her amazing mother will be able to continue her studies and give them the bright future they deserve.
Just a few years ago, this precious boy was very sick and his future looked uncertain. But thanks to the efforts of our supporters and staff, he has made a full recovery and is now dreaming of a bright future with his newly united family on the Kenyan seaside.
He wants to become an aerospace engineer and build his own airplane. He also wants to write books that will change the world.
It's amazing to see what he has accomplished already, and we can't wait to see what he will do in the years to come.
