Moses and Sylvia Ndung'u
Founders and Executive Directors

Since the founding of the Children's Garden Home in 2001, it has been home sweet home to Daddy Moses and Mum Sylvia, and their three lovely daughters, Kezia, Helena and Analisa. Moses and Sylvia believes that all the children in the home are as precious as their own. Thus their daughters live, play and attend the same school with the children. The trademark smile of the Ndung'u radiates love and joy.

Marcellus Nagachi Mang'ong'o
Manager

"I was helping to distribute bread and milk to street child beggars at the marketplace when Moses chanced upon me. He suggested to me instead of feeding the kids, why not start a school to teach them how to feed themselves. I was touched by Moses' vision and joined him when he started Children's Garden Home in 2001. Our beginning was so humble, just a dusty classroom. We've come a long way and it's been a hard struggle. Sometimes when there's not enough bread, we have to resort to giving the children thinner slices. But we are happy that the children are happy."

Lucy Wanjiru
Matron

"I've been taking care of all the children in the home for the last 3 years. My daughters, Joy and Sister, are also living here with all the children. Every 2 to 3 months, I'll take a 5 hour bus journey to see the rest of my family in Kisii, Nyanza province. As there is no pipe-in water at the home, I'm always concerned about children’s safety as they need to cross the road to a nearby river to fetch water for the daily needs. I'm grateful to visitors who support our home to make things better."

Alfred Okuku
Pastor

"I serve as the Pastor for all these children. I am also the handyman for the home, project managing all kinds of repairs and maintenance from construction of chicken coop to repairing fences, plumbing, furniture and roof. I enjoy guiding these boys to learn experientially with their hands so they will grow into capable and all-rounder persons."
