The Home

We are looking for volunteers to translate the new version of this page from French to English. If you are interested in helping us, please contact Isabelle@HappyHomeKenya.org.

Infrastructure

The future home is a permanent facility. The building is comprised of two blocks. It was built in 1990 and initially used as a medical institution. It is situated at Stellah market along Kisii-Migori road, formally known as Medicare Nursing Home. The buildings are well ventilated, corrugated steel roofed and all rooms having ceiling.

-------front view of the building

Initially, only the smaller building in the rear will be used, as this is sufficient for 15 children. Indeed, the larger building in the front requires major renovations of the roof and ceilings. These costs can be postponed to a later date.

Details can be downloaded at the bottom of this page.
