We are giving 225 vulnerable children in Zimbabwe a new life by moving away from cold institutions to family-style homes. Our model provides real houses where children live with a house mum and seven siblings, cooking and growing as a family. With schools on-site, we are able to provide excellent care. We are committed to keeping families together, and so more resources are needed in the community as well.
Many in care are young survivors of trauma and abuse who require more than just a bed; they need a sanctuary. Current systems are overstretched and often fail, but with a global movement to end children's homes, there is often no bridge or support to ensure these children have protection, access to help, and are supported.
We have already challenged large children's homes with our village model: houses on a secure site run by a house mum with 7 children, offering cooking and family life. We also have schools on-site to offer more support. We are then working to provide more training, resources, and support to help keep children in the community with family when possible.
Your support fuels a movement to raise a generation in homes, not hallways. As we transition children back into stable family environments, we are re-commissioning extra village space for allied charities and services. This ensures our centers remain a protective hub for the whole community even if children are not living on-site. We maintain high-security emergency spaces for those who need them most while building a future where every child has a permanent family and a place to belong.
