The initial 4 orphans have now been joined by others and are living under the great care and guidance of Lena, the first housemother. The children attend the local village school daily and their health and well being has seen very obvious improvements.
The smallest arrival, shown here in the photos is a premature baby girl,Rebecca, whose mother died of AIDS during childbirth - she is now doing well and thriving.
It is often the case that young children end up in the care of loving grandparents who simply do not have the means to support them. Zakayo is one such child, shown here with his grandparents. He now has a home at the orphanage.
The first container arrived at the end of last year and was huge fun for all the kids with new clothes, blankets, toys and books.
