A Safe House is a home where up to six children grow up within a loving and caring family unit. Where siblings are involved we work at keeping them together.

Currently (2020) we have 3 Safe Houses with 16 children that are under our care. They attend school where they may not have received any education or are behind when they start, they learn about God’s love through weekly Bible devotions and attend church.

It costs $700 a month to run a Safe House for six children ($116 per child).

We have a donor that will subsidize every child with $70 a month, so a donation of $46 a month will pay for a child for a full month.

The Safe House’s are homes where a maximum of six orphaned and vulnerable children are raised and discipled within a loving and caring family unit by a dedicated house mother. The Safe House model is a much more intimate home environment where we avoid the institutionalized feel of many orphan centres.  The family units are kept small to encourage a closer relationship with the house mother and the other siblings.

      EIC is part of the Canadian Centre for Christian Charities and is taking every step necessary to abide by CCCC’s Standards of Accountability.

      Donation Receipts will be provided for all donations. All gifts received are used for the purposes for which they were raised with the understanding that when the need for such programs have been met, or cannot be completed for any reason as determined by the organization, the remaining restricted contributions will be used where most needed with Board approval.
