Passion to help the oppressed

In 2007, I quit my job as a warehouse manager. I had done this work for 17 years and I felt I wanted to now offer my services to humanity.

In readiness for this, my wife and I decided to build a seven bedroom house in Syokimau, Machakos county and we started working on this project in 2008. We were sure we wanted to help society’s needy people but had no idea how to go about the same.
