Meet the Children

The children of HHY are our family. We work and laugh and cry and worship together. Many have experienced traumatic events in their past that have brought them to us. Each one is precious, and each one has a story. Allow us to introduce them to you!

(While our HHY family has gotten smaller over the past several years as we focus on sustainability measures, it remains our goal to house 20 orphaned and/or disadvantaged children. The children who remain continue to need your support to complete their academic endeavors and launch into productive citizens who are able to contribute to the growth and wellbeing of the community.)

MELVIN, AGE 15

Melvin joined the HHY family in 2017, after his father was imprisoned for murdering his mother. Melvin had never before been to school, and so was started in 1st grade in 2018. He is now in 9th grade and excelling in his studies. Melvin has adapted well to life at HHY, and refers to Victor and Racheal and his mother and father.

FLORENCE, AGE 16

Florence joined the HHY family in 2022, after her parents moved from the area and she needed a place to stay until she had completed her school exams. Upon efforts to reunite her with her family, it was found her father had promised her in marriage to a much older man (at age 14!), and Social Welfare intervened to prevent this from happening. Florence is now in grade 8, having passed her grade 7 exams with very high scores.

SAVIOR, AGE 15

Savior jointed the HHY family in 2022 as a placement by Social Welfare. He was previously living with only his mother in an unhealthy environment; the father had abandoned the family. Savior is currently in 9th grade and is an exemplary student.
