About
Born Like This is a community-based organization based in Kenya (Kisumu County) established in May 2015. This initiative was started by Mrs. Phoebe Onyango, who was troubled to see how children and women were suffering because their loved ones had died of HIV/AIDS. She couldn’t accept the idea that some of these children who were living with disability had lost their self-confidence because they couldn’t accept themselves as they were. She believed that a touch of love is what they needed, and wanted to give them the care that they deserved. Today, Born Like This cares for the children in a small shelter, and feeds them through food donations made by local churches.
Our Vision
Empowering the disabled, orphans, and widows empowers the nation. These children are the future of Kenya.
Objectives
Our primary objectives are to provide shelter, food, and clothes. We are also empowering the children and equipping them with the skills necessary to unleash their full potential.
