The CarePoint model · Five pillars of care
What We Do
We run Ministry CarePoints — local, community-based centres where orphaned and vulnerable children receive daily care while staying with their extended family. Not orphanages. Family-first, community-led, faith-centred.
The CarePoint Model
Traditional orphanages separate children from everything they know. We believe the best place for a child is with family — even if that family is a grandmother, an aunt, or older siblings.
The CarePoint is a safe, loving, locally-run centre that supplements what family already gives. Daily meals, homework help, medical care, emotional support, and Christian discipleship — all without removing the child from the people who love them.
The Five Pillars of Care
Every CarePoint delivers on all five — because a child needs more than just food.
Physical
Daily nutritious meals. Hygiene and health education. Basic medical care and referrals. Sports and recreation.
Intellectual
Homework support and tutoring. School uniform and fee support where needed. HIV awareness and life skills education.
Emotional
One-to-one mentoring. Wellbeing support. Trauma counselling for children who have lost parents or witnessed hardship.
Community
Home visits to the extended family. Life skills development. Strengthening local networks so communities care for their own.
Spiritual
Biblical teaching in the child's heart language. Discipleship. Connection into a local church family for life beyond the CarePoint.
Where We Work
Across seven sub-Saharan African nations — every CarePoint run by national staff serving their own communities.
