Impacting our Children *
Our vision is to transform the lives of these vulnerable children and to give them a hope for the future!
We do this by sponsoring community identified children, helping them access education and providing support and mentoring to both the children and their families.
Cheka Child provides stationery, school uniforms and school meals for each sponsored child. Additionally, we visit the children’s homes and schools regularly to ensure the children are flourishing. The children gather 4 times a year for a meal, games and teaching from the Bible. At Christmas this is made extra special when the kids are given new clothes and some gifts.
We work to empower the child, the family and the whole community for long-term transformation.
