CHOMBO CHA UPENDO

Teule operates a charitable children’s institution called Chombo Cha Upendo, which means “Vessel of Love”.  The home is located in Loitokitok, Kenya, and provides a loving stable environment for children who are orphaned or have been rescued from abuse, neglect, or harmful cultural practices.  With a capacity of up to 70  children, we have children from the ages of 4 to 18+.  The compound has a dorm for the older girls, older boys, and a junior dorm.  In addition to providing for the basic needs of the children, our dedicated staff is trained in trauma-informed care and behavioral management. Once a child reaches secondary school they attend boarding school.  We also have a team of social workers who are responsible for family finding, school visits, and family integration.
