The home is an initiative of Bishop Esther K. Mwiti, a nurse\/nutritionist who founded the home after surviving a kidney operation as a way of serving God, who healed her. Relying primarily on the generosity of donors, the home ensures the children have access to essential care, safety and nourishment.<\/p>\n<p>At present, the home has rusty and disheveled play equipment that needs repairs. The children deserve a safe and engaging play area that will foster not only their physical growth but also their emotional well-being and social development.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\"
