Our Kitalale Home opened in December 2010 with our first five children. The home at Kitalale is a sprawling family-style building with a common area where we can congregate as one big family. There is a separate cottage for boys aged 10 and over in line with Kenyan tradition. Located on 10 acres in a rural area near the western border of Kenya, the land provides plenty of room for growing fruits and vegetables, pasturing cows for milk and raising chickens.
Our home strives to be active in the community by being involved in the local church, attending local schools, and providing jobs by hiring the majority of our childcare, agricultural and farming staff from the community. It is also important to share our resources, like clean water, and our playground with our community in Kitalale.
