A Place to Call Home!

GDP Kenya has always had the vision of helping children who couldn’t care for themselves. Children who are vulnerable often had to manage on their own, facing many challenges in places where there was little assistance or hope. For this reason, our Good Samaritan Project and our A Lift Up Project are at the heart of many of the things that we do. We are actively involved in these two projects in Kenya, East Africa, which provide much-needed support to children’s homes. We prefer not to use the term “orphanages” in Kenya because, thanks to you and so many others, these children are no longer orphans! They have a place they can call home and people who genuinely care for them and their well-being and future.

GDPK’s A Lift Up Project and the Good Samaritan Project are two initiatives created to meet the needs of children who have been affected by physical and mental trauma, poverty, and lack of access to basic resources. Through these two incredible initiatives, we provide clean water, quality education, and a safe and comfortable environment for the children to grow and heal. We also provide support and guidance to meet the children’s needs so they can develop their potential and have a future worth looking forward to. Additionally, we focus on creating a sense of community and belonging among the children, which can help them foster relationships with their peers and gain the confidence they need to overcome their difficult circumstances.

We provide trauma-based help and care in each of the children’s homes that we support. Not only do we provide quality education, but we go beyond the normal by recognizing those who are excelling and giving them a push forward to achieve what was once a distant dream: advanced education! Through our scholarship program, we provide a means for these gifted young adults to continue their education in trade schools, colleges, and universities! Thanks to your help, support, and encouragement, GDP Kenya really is changing lives!
