What we do
At Njaaga Child Hope Center, we are one big Family. The Children, Staff, Volunteers, Friends and Supporters of the home, are all brought together by the plight of the Children. We have about 60 children and 15 staff members who help the children in their stay at the home.

There are those amongst us that still take HIV/Aids and death as a taboo. They do not want to come forward and talk about it. To some extent, it is traumatizing especially where we have "closed the door" this means that the whole family has been wiped out and the door is officially closed.
Where the door is half opened, we have grandmother taking care, in most cases, she is old and unhealthy, thus depending on well wishers for any support. At this point you find children are malnourished, sick, hungry and not attending schools though of age. We have recruited 300 young girls from my village whom we train in dressmaking and design.

These are girls that their parents are unable to take to college and if nothing is done they will end up being cheated by old men with as little as half a dollar for sex and because they are frustrated out of high school and no college they end up opening for the men and by bad luck either they become pregnant or sometimes end up having AIDS and this was the main reason of starting the dressmaking and design project.
