about us
How we care for children
Lira Babies Home helps orphans and vulnerable babies be in families because every child deserves to be loved, safe, and have dignity.
Today we're supporting 24 reunited families in family-based care while caring for 34 babies (between one day and three years old) within our home. Our goal is to help get the babies within our care and others into safe and loving families.
Lira Babies Home was started in 1968 to reduce the death rate of babies between one day old and three years old who were newly orphaned, abandoned, or in poor health.
Over the past 53 years, 900+ babies have passed through Lira Babies Home. Most, if not all, have found their place in the broader community, gainful employment, a trade, and have founded a family.
WHAT WE DO
Changing the way we care
Children should be families and kinship care, not orphanages. Kids have the best chance to thrive when they grow up in a family.
That's why we're committed to strengthening families, and we shifting towards a family-based care model.
