2017 Building Project

Too Little Children is delighted to announce that we are beginning to build a permanent and sustainable home for the children of Jemo House in 2017. Jemo House is currently home to 11 children, ranging from 5 to 18 years. We have rapidly outgrown our rental home and need our own space to grow

our home and raise up many children for years to come.In February of this year we purchased 1.5 acres of land in the Maseno area. The new home will be 2,600 sq feet to house 22 children and 3 house parents. We want to be able to serve more children while still maintaining a family environment.

Land Plot (1.5 acres): Construction: Fencing perimeter: Digging a well: Access to electricity: Water tanks & gutters: Painting: Total: Already Raised: Amount Remaining: 62 %

$15,000 $37,000 $800 $400 $400 $500 $1,000 $55,100 -$28,600 $26,500

We are in great need of support; both financially and in prayer. Please consider partnering with us to build this home that will serve these and many more children for years to come. Our costs and remaining amount to fundraise is listed to the left.To donate online, by clicking the link below. If you wish to send a check, please make it out to Too Little Children and send to 1513 Valley Run, Durham, NC 27707.

Our land will allow us to increase our ability to be self-sufficient. It comes with mature mango, avocado, and banana trees, which we plan to maintain and multiply. We have already started planting an extensive shamba (garden) that will include maize, beans, ground nuts, cassava and a large variety of vegetables. We hope to grow the majority of our own food within a year of moving. There is also a fish pond on the land

which we plan to restock to raise our own Tilapia. Our small family of chickens will have plenty of room to grow, and rabbits and a dairy cow are planned in the near future. Basic farming skills are essential in Kenya and we hope to use our land to teach our children and send them out with these necessary skills to maintain their own land someday.
