Mission
Children Who Needed a New Beginning
The children are referred here by Tanzanian social services. Most have no safe home due to HIV/AIDS or extreme poverty, and have no other option.
Life at the home is structured and secure. Mornings start with school, afternoons with homework and chores. In their free time, the children sing in a choir, play football, and do everything that makes a real home. Ten staff members make sure it all holds together, every day.
More Than a Home – A Hub for the Whole Village
The goal is always for each child to be reunited with their biological family or a suitable guardian. The home is a temporary place on that journey, full of care and with a clear direction forward.
Beyond caring for the children, the home serves as a hub for the village of Bumilayinga. Hospital transport, nutrition support, and income opportunities for struggling families are all part of daily life here. It is not only about the children at the home.
The children's home is a temporary but safe haven – always with family reintegration as the final goal.
