Every child and every animal has a story. These are the stories of transformation made possible by the compassion of people like you.
Nairobi, Kenya
“I never thought I would go to school again. Build Africa gave me a home, a family, and a future I never dared to dream of.”
Amina was just 8 years old when she lost both parents to illness. She spent two years on the streets of Nairobi before our outreach team found her. Today, she lives in our children's shelter, attends school, and dreams of becoming a doctor to help others like her.
Kampala, Uganda
“When Simba came to us, he was skin and bones. Now he runs with joy every single day.”
Simba was found abandoned and starving in a rural village. Our veterinary team nursed him back to health, and he has since become a therapy dog at our children's shelter, helping kids who have experienced trauma find comfort and healing.
Arusha, Tanzania
“After three years apart, we are finally together again. Words cannot describe our gratitude.”
Three siblings were separated during a regional conflict. Our family tracing program located their aunt in a neighboring district. After careful preparation and counseling, the children were reunited with their extended family, with ongoing support from our social workers.
