TUMAINI HOME
Tumaini home is the first of the GOA compassion Charitable homes. The home was started in 2002 when the first orphan was taken by Bishop David Thagana and rev Joyce Munyiri in their home in Nyandarua. Later on after Bishop Thagana and his family moved to the City of Nairobi, their rural home in Kinangop remained open to more orphaned children who joined giving birth to the current vibrant Home. The home today has more than 80 children rescued from different backgrounds. They are cared for by a team of loving caregivers led by Josphat Mukubwa an alumni of the same home. GOA Tumaini houses three GOA institutions that care for our children.
