Fund Our Community Center
With your help, we can build a new facility to accommodate more deserving children.
About this project
Over the past four years we have been providing education to homeless children and orphans as well as providing children from our surrounding community with free care, counseling, school supplies and education scholarships. Many of these Children come from broken or poverty stricken families and our center is a haven for them, whenever they need it.
Our staff does a remarkable job in the limited space available to them. Operating in an outdated building, they’re helping more than 500 kids benefit from the vital services our supporters make possible.
With your help, we can build a new facility to accommodate many more deserving children.
Critical issues
New construction will solve critical issues we face at our current center:
- Room to roam. No more overcrowded space without room for kids to play. A big, bright hall, playroom and outdoor playground will keep everyone comfortable.
- Healthy place to feed. No more sitting in the unhealthy dusty compound while eating. Kids will have their own feeding space and well-equipped kitchen!
- No more turning children away because we don’t have room for them to gather. They’ll have their own dedicated space for youth programs, job trainings and much more.
About the new center
The new community center will be a place of relief to less fortunate children, widows, youth, poverty stricken families, and the surrounding community. It will be distinguished by an integrated focus on child protection, youth development, family support, health and social services, and community development. It will extend the school day and week, reaching children, students, their families and community residents in unique ways.
It will serve as space where children and youth receive care, can safely play and study, and where they learn the skills they need to become empowered and to overcome poverty.
Name a room
The chance to leave a lasting impression on our Community Center by naming one of the rooms in the facility. The spaces that are changing the lives of kids will feature the name of you or someone you love. That’s powerful stuff. (Several of these opportunities — including the Computer Center and Library & Resource Center — are waiting for pledges from donors.)
The land
The one acre land near our old center where we intend to build the facility where children can be loved and looked after as well as engage the rest of the community in different activities like trainings on different issues.

Children’s playground
A secure, outdoor space for our younger kids to be kids, have fun and make connections with each other. It will also include a section for kids with special needs who may not be able to play like everyone else.
Funds needed $3000
Concrete & Steel Fence
A strong steel fence built on a reinforced concrete foundation will help secure the entire community center and create a safe environment for children and youth. Surrounding all 5 acres of the premises, the fence will provide clear boundaries, protect facilities and equipment, and help keep children safe from trespassers and stray animals. This important investment will ensure the center remains a secure space where young people can learn, play, and grow freely.
Funds needed $30,000
Clean Water System & Storage Reservoir
Located in a remote rural community without access to the national water grid, the community center urgently needs a reliable source of clean water. This project will include digging a well, installing a water pump, and constructing a large water storage reservoir to supply safe water throughout the center. Access to clean water is essential for drinking, cooking, sanitation, and the daily wellbeing of the children, staff, and families we serve.
Funds needed: $5,100
Landscaping & Compound Design
A well-designed and beautifully landscaped compound will create a welcoming, peaceful, and child-friendly environment for everyone who visits the community center. This project will include leveling and improving the grounds, planting grass, trees, and flowers, creating walkways and outdoor gathering spaces, and designing safe play and recreational areas for children and youth. A clean and organized environment will not only improve the appearance of the center but also provide a comfortable space for learning, healing, recreation, and community activities.
Funds needed: $10,000
Boys & Girls Dormitories
Our Boys and Girls Dormitories will provide safe, comfortable, and spacious accommodation for young people who travel from distant and underserved communities to learn at our Community Center. Having a place to stay will enable more youth to access practical training without distance becoming a barrier.
Students will participate in digital skills courses such as film production, graphic design, photography, coding, and other technology skills, alongside vocational training including tailoring and fashion design, hairdressing, catering, and more.
Funds needed: $198,000
