It started with one child.
Mama Hannah believed every child deserved safety, dignity, and the opportunity to dream beyond their circumstances.
In the late 1990s, Mrs Wairimu Njoroge began welcoming vulnerable children into her home after witnessing increasing cases of neglect, abandonment, and unsafe living conditions affecting children in her community.
What began with food, shelter, and compassion slowly became something much larger: a permanent commitment to protecting children and rebuilding futures.
As the number of children grew, so did the need for structure, education, healthcare, and long-term support — eventually leading to the creation of Mogra Children’s Centre.
Her vision continues to shape Mogra’s work today: not simply caring for children in crisis, but helping them build futures filled with possibility.
What She Believes Matters:
Rescue: Every child deserves protection, safety, and care.
Education: Education creates confidence, dignity, and opportunity.
Community: Healing happens through belonging and consistent support.
Independence: Children deserve the tools to build stable adult lives.
