Turning Point is a Christian charity working in Kibera, which is the largest slum in Kenya. Our mission is to demonstrate God's heart for the poor through programmes that relieve poverty, transform lives and restore hope amongst vulnerable children and their families. We offer a holistic range of programmes which provide children with access to education, healthcare and regular meals, in addition to providing them with Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS). We also operate pioneering prevention projects aimed at supporting families.
