The Mother of Peace Orphanage community was founded on the precepts and faith of the Catholic Church, but opens its arms to all regardless of colour or creed .

It was set up in 1994 as a response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic. It provides a home where orphans can be given shelter, education, and healthcare and are brought up in the security of a loving Christian family atmosphere.

The survival of Mother of Peace Community depends exclusively on donations from well-wishers and supporters from all over the world, and from their own self-reliance programmes such as farm produce.

With approximately 130 resident orphans to care for, in addition to providing on-going support for children who have been successfully reintegrated into their wider family group, MOPC needs substantial support to meet the running costs while it builds up its Income Generating Activities.
