Our Kikuyu Home
Our Kikuyu Home sits on fifty acres of picturesque land in a suburb of Nairobi, Kenya’s capital. The surrounding area has many hills and valleys, and this higher elevation brings cool temperatures both at night and in the winter months.
The living areas are dispersed around the compound:
Large building that houses the kitchen and gathering area
Boys’ Cottage for our boys twelve years and older – in line with Kenyan tradition
Two smaller family-style cottages for all the other children
Our Kikuyu Family
Our home in Kikuyu provides all the essentials our children need to thrive – things like healthcare, counseling, sense of family and belonging, education through college, spiritual guidance, and lots of love. It is a place our children can lay their heads down each night and rest knowing they are treasured and wanted.
