Hope for Orphans Rehabilitation Centre (HOREC)

HOREC is a home in Joska, Kenya for children who are orphaned by AIDS. It was started by a group of Field Health workers, who saw the plight of these children and are trying to help the most vulnerable. Initially it was a home for girls, but as it grows they have been able to add a dorm for some of the brothers of the girls, so families are not separated. All of these children have been affected by the AIDS pandemic; and some have been diagnosed with HIV and are receiving treatment.

The goals of the center are to give hope, quality care, security, guidance, counseling and a sense of belonging to these children who have been affected by this disease. The Director, Christine, and the staff and board are very committed to the well being of each child.

You can help by sponsoring one of these children. They all need basic needs such as food and clothing, and many also have reached school age and need a 2nd sponsor so that they can receive a quality education. For only $39/month you can offer hope and love for a vulnerable child who needs you, and start building a relationship by writing to them.
