The Centre is a place of refuge and provision for some of the most vulnerable children in the Kibera community. We recently finished building a two-story facility, which provides more classrooms and a better learning environment for the children. With more classrooms and more space the children have a more comfortable environment in which to receive instruction.

There are approximately 2.5 million slum dwellers in about 200 settlements in Nairobi. These people represent about 60% of the Nairobi population and live on only 6% of the land. Kibera, one of these settlements, houses an estimated 1 million of these people. It is one of the biggest slums in Africa.

Many children go without food in the slum. They are often left alone to find food scraps from garbage heaps. One of the aims of Bringing Miracles is to provide a hot, nutritious meal to as many children from Kibera as possible. We currently feed more than 300 children each day.

Another aim at Bringing Miracles is to educate the children. We believe a good education is an important factor that contributes to a child’s confidence and motivation for success as an adult. All these children have faced difficult situations. Many have faced unspeakable tragedy, and have no home-life to speak of. For this reason, the teachers are a vital part of the children’s success. We currently have 14 teachers, 2 cooks, and 1 administrator who care for and instruct our children.

The children receive academic instruction, which adheres to the Kenyan Ministry of Education syllabus used in schools across the nation. Our vision is to partner with teachers and volunteers, both local and international, to teach the underprivileged children in Kibera, Kenya.

There are no fees required, which enables even the most vulnerable children to receive a quality education. Bringing Miracles provides food, uniforms, mosquito nets, shoes, medical care, teachers’ salaries, and other budgeted needs. We also provide high school & college scholarships to the most gifted children who have gone through MVCC .

Education is a highly treasured means to a better life. A good education provides more opportunities to achieve a healthy life for the individual students receiving the education but also for the community at large. Academic instruction, along with biblical truth, is a part of each school day!

Monica Akinyi:  “My main dream for the Centre is to see my vision and mission come true that is to have a change of life for this kids through creating a good learning environment with water, electricity and nice classroom so that this kids can experience the love and bring hope to them. And allow the most fortune children and the community to see the change and love in these children.”

Richard Wali: His dream for the school is to see the school in a new building and high performance of kids to make learning easy so that those children who come from bad backgrounds can experience the love of Christ.

Janet Atieno: “My dream is to see this children , who most of them come from  single parents like Me , is to see the school have a conducive  learning environment with  separate classes instead of 3 classes in one hall which make it overcrowded difficult learning environment. I hope one day I’ll be able  to see this come true.”

Merceline Adhiambo: “My dream for the school is to see the school grow to a big learning institution. Whereby the children can get enough classes to allow them graduate to the next level without having drop off because of lack of classroom space.

Melvine  Akoth:  “My dream is to see orphans  feel the love, care, and passion  of Christ through good food, classroom  and a clean space to praise God  and enjoy playing. Also I would like to see good, clean bathrooms. I know how it feels to be an orphan because my parents died when I was little and I suffered alot so I want these orphans not to experience what I went through.”

Janet  Awino: “There’s no better gift you can give to  a Kenyan child than education. My happiness is to see the school have good facilities so that these children can get this precious gift in their life one day. I hope to walk up and see the children have a building and bathrooms.”

Wycliffe Opiyo:  “It is hard to teach in a mixed classrooms, but one day I wish the school will have enough classrooms: one room for each grade level.”

Selestine Okoth (cook): “It has been so hard  for me to cook outside in the hot sun and sometimes in the rain. It’s so hard  even to give the children food because the space is small.  I hope that one day we can havea  kitchen  and a dinning hall so that this children can enjoy their  meal in a hygenic environment.”
