The Vision


draft_lens4560522module114848691photo_1283492474Villages_of_Life_White_Lo


Through donations corporation, schools, churches and families the vision is to build villages consisting of 15 houses which will house 15 widows and approx 90 orphans. Each house will have 6 orphans and a house mum/parent which will give a great sense of family where there once was none. A school for 300 students servicing the orphan village and the surrounding population creating integration, a TAFE workshop for carpentry, metalwork and sewing and a medical centre. All the building material will be sourced locally boosting the local economy. The building will be done by the local work force creating much needed employment. This also helps to avoid jealousy within the surrounding community

Villages of Life is a Non Government Organization (NGO) and is the bricks and mortar component of the vision. Youth for Christ Burundi is there to provide for the emotional, spiritual and everyday needs of widows and orphans housed in the homes. Their vision is to raise up a generation of Godly leaders through leadership training.

Villages of Life aims to build a new village every 3 years.

Villages of Life Founder

Personally visited the orphanage in Gitega Burundi a number of times. Every time I was amazed to see how well the children are looked after and how they lived together as a family. Their happy smiling faces, their freshly brushed snow white teeth and the respect they have for their house mum was astounding.

It is unimaginable to think of where they may have been and how they would survive without the help of ordinary people like you and me.

The local people have amazing skills but no resources.Villages of Life

Homes of Hope Burundi in association with Villages of Life


Homes of Hope is the brand name of Youth for Christ Burundi’s orphanages. The name was inspired by the G21 mandate of raising a future generation. Burundi has been torm by many years of war and poverty and has thus resulted in many orphans; our quest is to provide a home and family for them.

We bring in children between the ages of 0-6yrs from all over the country from the 3 tribes. We have 2 orphanages; one located in Masenga (4 km from Gitega city centre) while the other in Cibitoke Province.

Each centre is designed to primarily have an Orphanage, Medical Centre, and School. The centres were created so that as Youth for Christ we can play a transformational role in the surrounding communities by providing educational opportunities and quality affordable medical treatment as well.

Get Involved Give!


Burundi YFC functions entirely on the generosity of its supporters. We have been in awe of the what has provided through churches and individuals over the past few years. Large once-off donations of money, resources and the hard work of skilled teams have had a huge impact on the ministry, while the regular small monthly gifts of a dedicated group of people have allowed the ministry to function on a day-to-day basis.
