Mission

Springs of Hope Kenya is a Christian based ministry with a mission to serve the needs of 63 orphaned children in the Nakuru Kenya area. Through donations and fund raising efforts, Springs of Hope Kenya plans to build a care center that will provide housing, education, nutrition and healthcare for orphaned children and their caregivers by providing beds, food, shelter, education and nurturing for the children. Additional goals include establishing a foster program for orphans. By supporting the community in this endeavor, we can help supplement the families so they can take on this additional burden of caring for the children and avoid having them placed in orphanages. These activities will be carried out by Spring of Hope's directors and through local support in the form of a facilities manager, a social worker, matrons and a cook.
