Our reason for being

Over the past months, New Jerusalem Children’s Home has been sharing with you, keeping you updated and making financial support request towards a school building project, which is currently under construction with about 85% of its construction phases completed.

Today, New Jerusalem Children’s Home, is here to share with you its reason for being, we come to share with you – one of the biggest success of New Jerusalem Children’s Home – please allow us to first start by saying “the success of a children’s homes, is not the buildings it has, not even the events it host an annual base, let alone the level of legal compliance towards its governing bodies and legislature and or funders. The success and a reason for being of every children’s home – is its ability to better lives of the children, the success of New Jerusalem Children’s Home and any other organisation doing the similar work – is simple to see children become self-sufficient, economically enabled and standing on their own, putting a bread on their table by themselves”

Please join us and the rest of New Jerusalem Children’s Home friends, Board of Directors and the children and youth at large – as we celebrate our organisation reason for being – the graduation of two of the homes first children, the two children who have opened the doors of New Jerusalem Children’s Home and smiled in the hands of the caring hearts and warm hands of New Jerusalem Children’s Home founders in the year 2000. May we all please put our hands together for Aurora (The first-born child of New Jerusalem Home) and Uriel (The second born child of New Jerusalem), the children who came into our care in the year 2000 – today we look at them and welcome home with ululation, drumming and dancing as they join the world of the graduates.
