If you would like to donate to any of these projects, please read the "How to Donate" section at the bottom of this page. Thank you for your desire to support Mavuno Village!

Mama Songoma Home Praise God that through your support we were able to complete Mama Songoma's home. Mama Songoma is one of the foster parents in our off-campus program. Last year her husband died and she was being pressured out of her previous house. She had a plot of land, but not enough money to build a house on it. Praise God that we were able to provide a home for her and her children. $4,000 $4,000
