Fundraising Dinner for Heart of Ruth Mission
February 7, 2018 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm
On Wednesday February 7 from 5-8pm, we are pleased to welcome back the ladies from the Heart of Ruth Mission. This caring organization works diligently to take care of the children who call Rainbow House Children’s Home their home.
Heart of Ruth has a goal of building a transition home for the older children. According to Kenyan law, any child who lives in a Children’s Home must leave when they turn 18. At 18 years old children get their National ID and are no longer considered children. At this age most students are not completed high school and cannot stand on their own two feet. These children come from previous lives full of hurt, instability and destitution. At Rainbow House many of them experienced what love and a stable family meant for the very first time. Heart of Ruth Mission wants to continue that stability by building a safe haven for them to transition into adulthood. This home is being built on land next to Rainbow House and the young adults will live there until their secondary/ post-secondary education is complete and they are in a position where they can provide for themselves.
Heart of Ruth Mission has a goal of stopping the cycle of poverty one child at a time, and building this house is essential to meeting this very important goal.
