Our purpose is to look after vulnerable children in Zimbabwe, including those affected by HIV/AIDS, and to raise them in a Christian environment. Children are taken into care at Keegan Home on the outskirts of Chinhoyi. There, they are provided with a home, a family atmosphere, and education, helping them grow into responsible adults with a hope-filled future.

In cooperation with the local Social Services department, Keegan Home provides a warm, loving, and secure family environment where children can flourish. Over the years, the home has cared for more than 100 boys. Some stay for just a few months, while others remain until they grow up.

The home offers a place of safety for children affected by HIV, those who have been abandoned, and others from traumatic backgrounds. Many of the children have significant medical, physical, or emotional needs. Keegan Home can accommodate up to 24 boys, from babies through to 18 years of age. Girls are cared for in a separate facility run by another charity.

NGM also supports children who achieve the grades needed to go on to university. This has enabled one of the boys to become a doctor, another a chartered accountant, and others to pursue careers as a lawyer and a pharmacist. One has recently started a university degree in Social Work. Others, with NGM’s support, have gained practical skills in trades such as building, farming, and mechanics — essential for helping them provide for their families.
