Family Empowerment Center-Machakos
Kenya

The children of Machakos receive loving care and life's basics amid widespread poverty.  

  • Rescue and care

    Children living in the Machakos region face numerous challenges daily due to widespread poverty: malnutrition, sickness, and missed school opportunities. HopeCo offers nutritious meals, assistance with education, psycho-social support and the love of Jesus!

  • Quality Education

    Without funds to buy school uniforms, textbooks, and supplies these children would have no hope for an education, stepping out of the cycle of poverty. We provide elementary, high school, and advanced education/vocational opportunities, enabling each to reach their full academic potential.

    Empowerment

    Our goal is to see families thriving and being able to provide for their own needs, so we assist them by offering physical, emotional, and spiritual support. Child-headed households (parental figure absent) receive additional support and encouragement to aid them in their day-to-day struggles. 

Partnerships are at the Heart of HopeCo 

Calvary Church in Valparaiso, Indiana, has a long history of serving the children of Machakos through child sponsorship, sending mission teams and volunteers, offering practical support and expertise, and prayer. HopeCo is delighted to join hands in partnership with Calvary with the goal of seeing the lives of children and their families transformed and the wider community of Machakos flourishing.

“We’re excited to partner with HopeCo in continuing to provide education, care, and support, and the love of Jesus to the children, families, and wider community of Machakos. Both Calvary and HopeCo share the vision of lives transformed by the gospel. We look forward with great anticipation to seeing what God will do as we get on mission with the gospel together in Machakos!
