CHILDREN OF LESSER SUNSHINE
Every child who came to live in the Children's Garden Home has a story. Unfortunately, none are happy ones. Although most children stepped into our home with a fearful heart filled with anxiety and traumas, their faces soon blossom into cheery smiles through our parental care and unconditional love. Hence, a new chapter begins for these little souls.
MIGHTY OAK-TO-BEs
Every child is an acorn born with the potential of a mighty oak tree. All he needs is watering of love and nourishment of knowledge to help him soar to his greatest height. YOU too can play a role to help us in the development and growth of these children, many of whom are filled with aspiration to excel and to serve.
Morgan Ng'ang'a
8 years old (2018)
Morgan was tragically abandoned by his mother at birth. Thanks to a good samaritan who picked him up from the street and sent him to Children's Garden Home. Little Ng'ang'a may never know who are his real parents, but he certainly has loving parents in Moses and Sylvia, and a big family of sisters and brothers to play and grow up with now. |

Nelima Metrine
20 years old (2018)
Nelima was 11 years old when she was brought to the Children's Garden Home in 2009. She was abused and locked up in her home until she was rescued. The trauma greatly affected Nelima and she was fearful of people, even someone as fatherly as Moses, the founder of Children's Garden Home. Through counseling, she is feeling safe and happy now. |

DARE TO DREAM, PROUD TO SHINE

MUSIC EXCELLENCE |
|
We are the defending champion for traditional dance in the Kenya Primary School category. Our traditional dances are as uniquely rich in diversity as the tribal mixes of our children, and they showcase so well the Kenyan cultural and tribal heritage.

DRAMA EXCELLENCE |
|
Our drama team had an opportunity to perform in Stockholm, Sweden in the Opera House for an audience of 300 in 2009. The performance was so moving that it attracted the attention of the Swedish nation to not only our home but also Kenya and Africa.

SPORT EXCELLENCE |
|
The home has a strong football team both boys and girls. The girl’s football team is still the defending champion of Dagorreti Districts, while the boy’s team was placed 2nd in Nairobi Youth Football Inter-School Competition, in 2003 and 2008.
Most of the children played football barefooted as they could not afford proper football boots. Despite that, they keep on scoring goals and winning matches. It shows that even with the bare minimum, these children can score in life! |
