The program is addressed to private citizens and organized group of community members living in Kenya and abroad. The program aims at supporting children hosted in the Koinonia Children Homes in order to improve their quality of life.
It is believed that the most sustainable and authentic development starts and continues thanks to local efforts; this is why the program supports the raising of awareness of people living in Kenya towards Orphan and Vulnerable children (OVC) living in harsh conditions and poverty. The purpose is to help the citizens to become active agents of positive changes of their own community, giving them the opportunity to take part in the development process as protagonists.

The program is also open to foreigners living abroad with the aim of sensitizing the international community awareness on the issue of the street children that afflicts the Kenyan community. A direct and personal relationship between the sponsor and the child will be assured thanks to a continual correspondence, monitoring and evaluation reports, and the possibility to come in Kenya and visit the child.
