Mount Selinda Orphanage
Donate nowOn Sunday, 13 July 2025, a devastating fire tore through Mount Selinda Orphanage in Chipinge, Zimbabwe, leaving behind a trail of destruction and despair. The fire destroyed dormitories, classrooms, and stores—leaving dozens of vulnerable children without shelter, food, clothing, or school supplies.
Founded in 1955, Mount Selinda Orphanage has served as a refuge for orphaned, abandoned, and at-risk children—offering them not just a place to sleep, but a place to heal, grow, and belong.
Today, that safe haven lies in ruins.
We are urgently appealing for your support to help meet the immediate and critical needs of the affected children. Your donation will go directly toward:
-
Emergency shelter and bedding
-
Food and clean water
-
Clothing and hygiene kits
-
School uniforms and supplies
-
Psychosocial support and trauma care
No child should have to face disaster alone. With your help, we can restore stability, dignity, and hope to their lives.

Ponesai Vanhu Children’s Home
Donate nowPonesai Vanhu Children’s Home PVCH) was stabled in 1994 in order to provide children who are homeless, orphaned and living in the street, with shelter, basic education and other every day necessities to secure their personal, social, practical and academic development, so that they can grow up creating a stable and good future for themselves and their communities. In essence, it is a rehabilitating center where these children and young people are holistically rehabilitated into responsible, reliable and refocused youth (R4Youth) ready to fit in the mainstream society and survive the prevailing harsh economic environment in the country. For Refocusing, the home wants to mold children and youths to be entrepreneurial and not to focus on getting formal employment which is very difficult to obtain due to the high level of competition against few available opportunities. To this end, PVCH want to establish a Horticulture Training Hub to train children and youth into agripreneurship, as a low hanging livelihoods option given that the country is agro-based, to the children and youth preparing for weaning off. The Horticulture Training Hub will be a commercial demonstration and training site, where the youth and children from PVCH will get practical horticulture training, producing adequate high value crops to the satisfaction that they are ready to survive by practicing horticulture as a livelihood option, before they are reintegrated back to their community. The crops will be sold and proceeds used to train others thus ensuring sustainability. The Horticulture Hub will use the existing garden of 0.5ha that was fenced by Instatol. What is now required is US$10,000 to drill a solar powered borehole, a 10000L water tank and climate smart drip irrigation system. This is a life changing initiative to bring life-skills to vulnerable children and Youth for their living and bring development to their communities.
