To be faithful in caring for orphaned and vulnerable children, a growing project, that demonstrates true community, deep Christian spirituality and a passion for justice.
But this is just the beginning of the story.
Now, we need two dormitories, a dining/cooking block, washing block and a leisure/study block.
We also intend to have a vegetable plot so that the children can grow their own food. We already have banana and avocado trees and a small pineapple plot.

Twiga Children's Home (formerly Mercy Gate Champion Children's Home) part of the KCIS Child Support Centre and is a non-profit organization (seeking NGO status) based in Kisii, Kenya, that is run by a team of volunteers. The centre has been established to give support and aid to children with problems, with shelter, food, clothes, education and conselling.
We are financed purely by donations and the amount of work we can do is proportional to the amount of money we receive - but we never turn a needy child away.
The centre was founded by Abigail and Vincent. They inherited a plot of land and rather than do what most Kenyans do - build their home on it - they decided to dedicate it to the orphans of Kisii.

In the first instance, we want to look after the children of Kisii who have lost one or both parents or who, for whatever reason are vulnerable. We also want to offer counselling to those children who do not need a home, but are vulnerable in some way.
In order to do this the Twiga Children's Centre has acquired some land on which we are going to build a home for some of these disadvantaged children.
We believe in the family unit and provide support to parents or other family members,where appropriate, to keep the family unit together. Only where there is no viable family unit will we offer residential care.
To raise funds to build the home (or rent the houses), to look after the children presently in the care of the centre, and children who may come into their care in the future.
