Transforming Lives, One Child at a time
At Aswani Kizito’s Project of Hope, we believe that every child deserves a safe home, access to education, and the opportunity to build a better future. Operating Currently based in Kawangware, Nairobi, our community-driven initiative provides a lifeline to orphaned, abandoned, and vulnerable children, giving them the tools and support they need to become self-sufficient adults.
Our mission is simple, yet profound
-
To rescue and rehabilitate children from vulnerable situations.
-
To provide holistic care—including education, food, shelter, and healthcare.
-
To equip children with life skills that empower them beyond childhood.
-
To create a sustainable future by establishing a fully functional Children’s Centre outside Kawangware.
We focus on helping Orphaned & abandoned children who have no family support; Children living with disabilities, including those with cerebral palsy and other developmental challenges; and Street children & at-risk youth in Kawangware, providing them with alternatives to life on the streets
AN OVERVIEW
TIMELINE
Having established the NGO, Aswani Kizito's Project of Hope, we are now in the fundraising stage, which will allow us to purchase the land and start building the Centre. We expect to achieve our fundraising goals by the end of December, so we can start moving forward in early 2025. By the middle of 2025, we would like to have the building complete, and the Centre fully equipped so that the children can start moving in shortly afterwards.
We initially plan to raise Ksh 30 million (approximately USD 300,000), in the form of cash or goods and services in order to finish building and furnishing the Centre. Any surplus will be applied to an endowment fund for the running costs of the Centre.
