We help over 100 homeless, orphaned and abandoned children access education shelter and food through out Kenya
Mama Clare Orphans and Widows is a sanctuary for vulnerable children, located in Kayole Junction, Nairobi, Kenya. Founded in 2013 by Clara Zawadi with a simple yet powerful vision to give every child a place to call home. What started as a small act of kindness has grown into a safe haven for children who have nowhere else to turn. Many of the children in our care have faced heartbreaking circumstances, some abandoned by their parents, others left orphaned by tragedy, and many displaced by fires or other calamities. But here, they find more than just shelter. They find love, family, and a chance to dream again. Beyond providing food, clothing, and a roof over their heads, we are committed to giving these children a future. Through education, mentorship, and emotional support, we nurture their potential and help them rebuild their lives with dignity and hope. Read more ...
Your donation will directly support the following initiatives, helping us create a brighter and more stable future for the children in our care.

Education is a powerful tool for change. We aim to build a school within the orphanage, providing quality education tailored to the unique needs of our children, ensuring they have a solid foundation for a better future.

We currently operate in a rented space, which limits our ability to provide long-term stability. Your support will help us build a permanent home where the children can grow up in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment.

Many of our children attend external schools, and ensuring they have access to quality education is a constant challenge. Your donations will help cover tuition fees, books, uniforms, and other essential learning materials.

A well-balanced meal is essential for a child’s growth and development. Your support will help us provide daily nutritious meals, ensuring that no child in our care goes to bed hungry.

Healthcare is a basic necessity, yet many orphaned children lack access to proper medical treatment. Your contributions will help us provide regular medical check-ups, vaccinations, emergency care, and mental health support for the children.

Many children arrive at our orphanage with little more than the clothes on their backs. Your donations will help provide proper clothing, shoes, bedding, hygiene products, and other essentials to ensure they live with dignity and comfort.
Every contribution makes a difference. Join us in giving these children hope, love, and a future full of possibilities
