Hope Child Africa

Hope Child Africa Hope Child Africa supports children & families living in poverty in Mombasa, Kenya Hope Child Africa supports orphans in Mombasa, Kenya.

The orphanage is located near a slum on the outskirts of Mombasa, Kenya. We provide hope & support to benefit children who are orphaned or living below the poverty line - lacking basic food, shelter and educational needs. We currently provide care for over 41 children including providing housing, care and education for orphans as well as education and meals to children living in the slums nearby.

The foundation was established by Australian Belinda Buchanan (CEO) in 2012. If you would like to donate click the button on our page. Or to get involved in other ways head to our website or send us an email.

For many families across vulnerable communities, mornings begin with difficult choices. A parent eats less, so a child can eat more. A child walks to school carrying an empty stomach but still holds onto the Hope that education can change their future.

Hunger is not always loud. Sometimes it looks like tired eyes in a classroom. Sometimes it looks like silence.

This is why community support matters. Not for pity. For dignity. For consistency. For Hope.

Today marks another meaningful step forward in our work on the ground. Weโ€™ve installed gutters on several homes, helping to direct and collect clean, flowing rainwater for families who previously had limited or unreliable access.

Something as simple as harvesting rainwater can make a life-changing difference โ€” improving daily living, supporting hygiene, and bringing dignity and relief to households.

Weโ€™re grateful to everyone who continues to support this journey. Together, small practical solutions are creating real and lasting impact.
