This project will provide education, give food and health care to over 164 orphans who were rescued under very difficult conditions and given a place they can call home. Bread without Borders Orphans Support Project is running the only non-formal school in the slums caring for orphans with special needs. Once rescued, these orphans are given basic education, vocational training , counseling and love. The center has rescued and supported over 80 orphans who could have ended up in crime.
There are over 1,000 destitute and orphan children roaming the slums of Manyatta and its environs. The worst affected are children below 5 years who are forced by circumstances to drop out of school due to hunger and lack of proper care back at home.
