Mission

To rescue, rehabilitate, reintegrate and re-socialize street boys.

Vision

To ensure that every street boy is rescued, rehabilitated and reintegrated into the community and/or family sustainably.

We facilitate prevention programs within communities. While rescues are conducted directly from the streets, we have gate-keeping structures to intervene in the event a child is at risk of ending up on the streets, thereby shielding them from experiencing the unforgiving street life. The aim is to minimize the number of children driven to the streets as a result of unbearable family and living circumstances such as poverty, hunger, abuse and neglect.

Where possible, we also facilitate economic independence of families enabling them to holistically and equally provide for all children in a given household. This is mostly families of children who have been reintegrated and those under our prevention program. Home assessments are conducted regularly.

Targets for empowerment will mostly include families of children that have been reintegrated and those under our prevention program. Home assessments to establish eligibility shall be conducted

We remove the boys from the streets and give them care and protection by providing them with basic needs such as food, clothing, medical care and shelter while protecting their rights.

Our aim is to rescue boys off the street into a safe home environment and provide them with care, protection and basic needs such as food, clothing, medical care. We admit boys only housed in a 5 bedroom complex made up of a living room, entertainment room, 5 bedrooms and an extended outside dorm, 4 bathrooms and 4 toilets. This house is currently leased by us. Where emergency medical attention arises at any stage of the rescue/rehabilitation we have collaborated with the various institutions who offer medical treatment at subsidized rates. We rely on well-wishers for food and clothing.

We provide rescued children with psychosocial support, counselling sessions, literacy classes, sporting and recreational activities, detoxification and medical care to enable them to transform.

Because our home receives children from the streets most of them have very basic formal education or none at all. Initially, all the children are taken through in-house fundamental literacy classes in numeracy, reading and writing. Depending on a child’s strength, preferences and availability of resources a child is either enrolled in a formal school or a vocational/technical school.

In addition, through our mentorship program, volunteers made up of professionals and university students from various backgrounds provide the children with inspirational talks, guidance and professional counselling.

To supplement and compliment formal education, we provide entertainment for the children in the form of television, wide array of reading materials, excursions (if funds 5 allow) and age appropriate toys. The children also enjoy sports facilities within the compound.
