The Facility Permission to build a home was granted in November 2002 and was registered (Reg No SS/MSA/CD/SH/02/364) by the Department of social Services in Kenya as Tumaini Children’s Home. The foundation stone was laid in May 2003 by the district Officer 1 on behalf of the District Commissioner, Mombasa.
There is room for 70 children, in two dormitories housing 30 girls and 30 boys who are infected or affected by the HIV/AIDS virus. The Home also includes a hospice for 10 terminally ill children so that may have a peaceful and loving passing. Future plans include adding another storey to the home in order to increase capacity to 120, and to build a school on a site adjacent to the Home. |
