WE'VE MET LOCALS WHO HAVE SPECIFIC VISIONS
FOR THEIR COMMUNITIES, BUT DON'T HAVE THE
NECESSARY RESOURCES TO FULFILL THEIR VISION.
WE PARTNER WITH AND EMPOWER THESE LOCALS
TO FULFILL THEIR VISIONS FOR THEIR COMMUNITIES.
Mary began her journey with Jesus at a young age, and has always had a deep love for the Lord and passion to serve Him. God has blessed this sweet woman with many gifts! She is a registered nurse, a community leader, a wife and mother of four sons, a grandmother and, of course, the founder and director of Springs of Hope. This home (and Mary) has provided many children with constant love, shelter, medical treatment and education over the years. It has been such a privilege to partner with Mary to provide sponsors for these children. Likewise, it has been a true blessing coming alongside Mary in praying for a bright and wonderful future for the children God has placed in her care.
Springs of Hope aims to restore hope to orphans and vulnerable children through a comprehensive and compassionate approach that enhances the survival and development of each child into responsible adulthood. Springs of Hope admits boys and girls between the ages of infancy to four years who have been orphaned, abandoned, abused, and neglected. Since Mary Musyoka founded the home, more than 89 children have been referred from local police stations, hospitals, and residents of Machakos.
After nurturing, loving, and protecting the children placed in her care, Mary networks with local officials and families to place each child into a foster or adoptive home. Through the adoptive process, Mary and Springs of Hope work to empower the children and families in the Machakos area and create long-term change in the local community.

His vision is to give hope to the hopeless, share with the needy, and minister to the suffering, in Jesus’ name.
