Our Work
Over the last three decades, MCF has developed a process to transform the lives of children in need and create a brighter future for generations to come.
Preventing future tragedies through advocacy and awareness
All We Do
CARING FOR ORPHANS
Caring for over 6826 children in need every day.
MCF operates two large homes and four community centers, caring for over 6826 orphaned, abandoned, and vulnerable children. We provide for their physical needs with essentials like food, clothing, and shelter, and offer emotional and spiritual support through mentoring, education, counseling, and—most importantly—love.
RESCUING YOUNG MOTHERS & THEIR CHILDREN
Helping mothers and their children escape life on the streets.
Our Malindi Women’s Center rescues young mothers from abuse and helps them escape a life of prostitution or crushing poverty after being abandoned or widowed. The center provides childcare, education, and vocational training, equipping women with the skills needed to support themselves and their families.
EDUCATION & VOCATIONAL TRAINING
Providing opportunities for education and vocational training.
MCF operates five preschools, four secondary schools, and one vocational center to help children learn and prepare for their future. We actively encourage girls to attend school by providing feminine hygiene products, ensuring they don’t miss additional days. We also offer scholarships for higher education, empowering students to expand their horizons.
MEDICAL & DENTAL CARE
Offering free medical and dental care to both children and adults.
MCF enables vulnerable children and local communities to access preventive and diagnostic healthcare services through the MCF Ndalani and MCF Yatta medical centers. Medical and dental care is provided by short-term mission teams from the US and Canada, who collaborate with in-country healthcare professionals. In 2017 alone, over 14,000 people from nearby communities received free medical care through MCF’s outreach ministry.
SELF-SUSTAINABILITY PROJECTS
Providing opportunities for education and skills training.
To ensure a sustainable future for Mully Children’s Family, we grow 90% of the food consumed by the children. Additionally, the income generated from these projects allows us to care for even more children. Our current projects include horticulture, poultry farming, dairy production, and fish farming. These initiatives provide additional job opportunities for the community and vocational training for the children. We are also a major employer of women in the community.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION
Planning for the future and cultivating beauty through conservation and tree planting.
To create a healthy environment for all, MCF provides local schools with hands-on training in tree conservation and climate change. Additionally, every visitor to our facility plants a tree. Over the past three decades, Mully Children’s Family has planted hundreds of thousands of trees, transforming desolate areas into beautiful, productive spaces.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Reaching out to our neighbors through ministry, education, and support.
We never want our charity to stop at the borders of our homes. That’s why we extend our reach to the community, helping wherever we can. We visit local prisons to share the word of God and offer encouragement. We also run youth leadership and mentorship programs, and provide free medical and dental care to community members.
ADVOCACY
Ensuring a brighter future through partnerships with local organizations.
We educate local law enforcement agencies on identifying child abuse and understanding human rights. Additionally, we increase access to justice for children by partnering with other children’s programs and targeting the police force, courts, and other relevant networks to enhance protections for children in need.
DISASTER RELIEF
Helping our neighbors by providing essential support during natural disasters.
At Mully Children’s Family, we follow the example of Christ by caring for our neighbors. We provide clean water, food, and medical care to communities during times of drought, civil unrest, flooding, and other disasters.
