House of Faraja Safe House
Kenya

Our safe house rescues girls out of unimaginable abuse, offering protection, counsel, education, and hope as they heal.

    RESCUE AND PROTECTION

    HopeCo operates a safe house that provides protective care to vulnerable girls that have been rescued from childhood violence and abuse, away from further harm and danger. 

  • Five children sit in a circle outdoors on chairs, talking and smiling under a large tree in a green, fenced yard.

    QUALITY EDUCATION

    The girls at House of Faraja are safe, receive trauma-informed counseling, quality education, and are cared for by our loving staff. Resuming their education is critical to their stability and sense of normalcy while they heal.

    EMPOWERMENT

    Our goal is to see each precious girl heal from the trauma she has experienced, and see her life changed as she comes to know her loving Heavenly Father. Whenever possible, reuniting each girl with their families and helping families flourish is our desire. 

There’s HOPE for Hannah* at House of Faraja! 

Hannah joined the rest of the girls at House of Faraja (HOF) late last year. She is a very hard-working girl, follows instructions, and is exuberant in all she does. She is a bit shy, but when someone “steps on her toes” she’s able to defend herself! But that’s not how Hannah was when she first arrived at HOF. 

Unfortunately, being raised by a single mother trying to make ends meet, has been difficult for everyone. With few options to care for Hannah when her mom left home for work, Hannah was left with her grandmother. Sadly, while her grandmother went to the market to buy food for them, a neighbor molested Hannah.  

Months later, Hannah still battles the effects of this devastating violation. Our staff has taken her to the hospital several times, trying to get her the treatment she needs. We are praying that the doctors find a solution so that she can begin to heal and lead a healthy life.  

When Hannah came to HOF, she was withdrawn and kept to herself, until she realized she was in a safe environment. Now she enjoys interacting and playing with the other girls in the home. 

Hannah is well-liked by her teachers at school! She shows initiative and is eager to learn and is one of the best pupils in her class! We are delighted and thankful for this progress and look forward to what God has in store for her!
