Our Projects

Our Karundas Children’s Home provides residential care for up to 45 of the region’s most vulnerable children, as we work hard to reintegrate them back into their family or foster care. Most of them come to us having been abandoned or orphaned, with many being HIV-positive.

Our Centre provides residential care for up to 52 vulnerable boys, as we try to reintegrate them back into their own family, or in foster care. Most are HIV-positive and came to us orphaned and/or severely neglected, a number of them having been rescued from the streets.

Our Home serves up to 30 vulnerable children from the local community, many having been rescued from traumatic cult abuse or having been orphaned or abandoned. All have experienced trauma, so we work carefully with them as we aim to reintegrate them back into a safe family.

Mitaboni Children’s Home shelters up to 50 children from extremely difficult backgrounds, as we try to reintegrate them back into a family or into foster care. They come to us on the verge of starvation needing urgent medical care, having received no meaningful education.

Hall Mead is a highly recognised school serving 500 impoverished children who would otherwise be working in the local quarries. Many have lost at least one parent. 25% of the pupils are HIV positive. We provide an excellent education as well as holistic care through nutritional food, trauma counselling and family support.

Our team in Kenya have started ministering to vulnerable children living in the vast slums there, including Kibera. Working closely with their families and local schools, our aim is to empower them to break the poverty cycle and create a 'go to school' culture, crucially, providing trauma care and support for both child and parent.

We are passionate about keeping vulnerable children with their own family, or a fostered one. In Kenya, many of our children live with an impoverished single widowed mother or grandmother who just need a bit of help to support the child, which is what this programme is designed to do.

Through the provision of scholarships, this excellent programme enables 70 extremely vulnerable children in western Kenya to break the poverty cycle by helping fund support for their education. It also impacts their families and wider communities.

Being orphaned or from an impoverished background is difficult enough, but trying to get through university without any meaningful family support is nigh on impossible. This excellent programme provides mentorship and practical support for some of the brightest young adults who have been in our care.

In Zambia, when a mother is sentenced to prison and she has a child aged 4 or under, the child will often go with her. As conditions in Zambian prisons are notoriously bad, Kids Alive Zambia has launched a new programme to provide practical, spiritual and emotional support for both mother and child. Crucially, we are also working with the prison authorities to advocate for systems reform so that children are better cared for when behind bars.

Sadly child sexual abuse is endemic in Zambia with many men believing that they will be cured of HIV if they have sex with a child. With an average age of only 12, there is negligible support and care for the victims and painfully inadequate systems to pursue justice or to establish effective child protection laws and systems. Our pilot scheme is designed to address all of these, providing care for the victims, justice for them, and work with the authorities for reform.
