Supporting the Future of Our Community
Nyamecheo Community Child Support Centre
About Us
We are a Christian faith-based Kenyan orphanage that provides local impoverished orphaned children & blind, deaf, disabled, and mentally challenged adults with food, clothing, shelter, and discipleship.
Psalm 9:18 For the poor will not be without help; the hopes of those in need will not be crushed for ever.
Our Mission
We are dedicated to improving the lives of orphan children and disabled adults in our community by providing them with basic needs and discipleship.
However, the ultimate goal for the Nyamecheo Community Child Support Centre is to build a facility large enough to accommodate orphans and vulnerable families, as well as a Technical Training Institution, and a Medical Training Centre. This will certainly change the trajectory of the children’s lives as they will be able to become gainfully employed, independent, and successful adults in our society.
In addition to this goal, we desire to have health care providers on staff so that we can provide ongoing medical care to those who are disabled, in addition to housing and feeding them.
Our Programs
The Nyamecheo Community Child Support Centre has been in operation since 2010. Currently we have a total of 50 orphans: 30 girls and 20 boys. In addition to helping orphans, on occasion we also help blind, deaf, disabled, and mentally challenged people who have financial constraints and lack of food.
We’ve adopted all of the children at a young age, and they are all in primary school and will be attending secondary school soon. Our plan and vision after secondary school is to have them enroll into colleges, universities, or a technical training institute so that they may become successful contributors to society.
We have come quite a way in this journey as not too long ago some of the children would run away from the orphanage due to the lack of food. However they are now staying and attending school regularly.
Nonetheless our biggest obstacle of supplying sufficient daily meals and appropriate sleeping arrangements remains.
Who We Are
Pastor and second father to the children of the NCCSC, Geofrey Ayaka and his wife Dolphine Ayaka are the founders and directors of the Nyamecheo Community Child Support Centre. This orphanage is the realization of Pastor Geofrey’s dream of caring for orphaned children. After telling his wife Dolphine about his desire of opening their house to orphaned children, Dolphine agreed with her full support. From that moment on Pastor Geofrey, Dolphine, and their three children, created a space in their home to share what they had with the orphaned children.
Pastor Geofrey’s desire to care for the less fortunate started when he was a young boy. Being brought up in a slum by a single parent, he witnessed how children were suffering after being abandoned by their parents due to excess drinking, poverty, and death due to the AIDS epidemic. He felt in his heart that all the hurting children should be taken care of, yet no one cared. It was in that moment that Pastor Geofrey vowed to not be a witness to even one suffering child, but rather accommodate as many as possible to relieve them from suffering. This is what motivated him to start an orphanage; him and his loving wife Dolphine.
