Welcome to Twana Twitu


Twana Twitu is a Not-for-Profit, tax-exempt organization whose mission is to provide support, quality care and empowerment to Orphaned and Vulnerable Children (OVC) in Kenya.  We focus wholly on the rural child and foremost on those affected by or infected with HIV/AIDS. 
 
When translated from the Bantu language, Kikamba, "Twana Twitu" means "Our Children." In our devotion to the marginalized child, we advocate for and defend children's rights, aggressively pursuing the love, compassion and self-enabling opportunities that all children deserve but which are only availed when the world cares. 
 
Do you care?
 
The world's children - the poor children - are twana twitu…our collective responsibility. 
 
Their plight is our cause; their tears, our drive.
 
Please join us in empowering OVC with educational, nutritional, medical and psychosocial support as well income generating activities. 
 
Welcome to Twana Twitu!

Twana Twitu is non-partisan and not aligned with any political, religious or tribal organization.


Famine Strikes Twana Twitu Children!

Twana Twitu children need your immediate help. Twana Twitu provides educational and medical services to children orphaned by AIDS. However, these children are now being threatened by starvation. They are suffering from one of the worst droughts in many years. The crops are failing and food is running out. Currently, many are only able able to eat one meal every three days and the situation is getting worse. 

There are a total of 1,080 children and their caretakers, mostly grandparents, affected. It takes only $16 per month per person to keep them alive. Two months of support will get them through the crisis.
