A CHILD NEEDS MORE THAN A HOUSE, A CHILD NEEDS A HOME AND A FAMILY At Watoto, children have a mother to love them, education to inspire them, healthcare to strengthen them, and their value and identity in Christ. In short, they have everything they need to grow up happy, healthy and full of purpose. Thats how were raising Africas future leaders. OUR MODEL IS CENTERED AROUND FAMILIES A Watoto village is a safe place where a child can truly experience the love of a family. We have three villages that have classrooms, medical clinics, churches, playgrounds, and most of all homes for our children and mothers. In each house youll find a Watoto mother who is raising eight orphaned and vulnerable children. Together, theyre a family, and shes raising them with love.
