From concrete walls to Christ-centered care, these dorms are more than buildings—they’re sacred spaces where futures are rebuilt.
From Abandonment to Belonging
Many of our children come from unstable, even dangerous environments. Before arriving, they lived in alleyways, on construction sites, or under makeshift tarps. Here, they find their first consistent bed, their first safe place to rest—and sometimes, their first experience of family.
These dorms do more than provide shelter. They create emotional safety, spiritual grounding, and a sense of permanence that changes everything.
Why Permanent Housing Changes Everything
Children can’t heal in chaos. Psychologists and trauma-informed care providers agree: consistent routine and physical safety are essential in reversing early trauma. When kids know where they’ll sleep, anxiety decreases and trust begins to grow.
We see it daily: once fearful, guarded children become curious, confident learners. They engage with school, build friendships, and start to see their worth.
Designed for Discipleship
Each dorm is intentionally designed to nurture both community and quiet reflection:
Shared mealtimes that build family-like connection
Small-group spaces for evening devotionals and Bible memory
Prayer corners for quiet journaling or intercession
House parents who live on-site and model godly mentorship
Morning worship starts in the dorms. Bedtime prayer circles form spiritual rhythms. It’s not just housing—it’s holistic discipleship.
What We’ve Built So Far
Thanks to faithful partners, we’ve completed:
Dorm 1 (Girls): 18 children
Dorm 2 (Boys): 14 children
Solar energy + running water infrastructure
Safety protocols, lighting, and beds for every child
What Comes Next
We’re now preparing for Phase 2:
Adding a second level to each dorm to double capacity
Building a chapel courtyard between the dorms
Establishing staff housing for overnight support
Launching a study center with donated books and computers
Final Thoughts:
Buildings don’t change lives—Jesus does. But buildings make space for that transformation to happen.
We’re not just building structures—we’re building futures filled with faith, stability, and belonging.
