PROJECTS OVERVIEW
Health. Education. Empowerment. The Children’s Health Village. Nutrition.
🏥 HEALTH
At the heart of Shoe4Africa’s mission stands our hospital — East & Central Africa’s first public children’s hospital — built and donated in 2015. This facility, treating over 430 young patients daily, is the beating core of all we do. But our vision for health stretches far beyond hospital walls. Check out the Children’s Health Village for our growth and note that our reach extends into the community—through awareness programs, education, Malaria, nutrition, taking kids for check ups, and support—because true healing embraces body, mind, and hope in every day life and not just at medical centers.

🧩 THE CHILDREN’S HEALTH VILLAGE
Our vision is the Children’s Health Village—a one-of-a-kind 9-acre campus of interconnected services for the child, mother, and community. A “one-stop shop for health,” it will treat more children annually than any other center on the African continent.

🥗 NUTRITION
Nutrition has always been central to our mission—whether serving hot meals to schoolchildren, providing food for hospitalized kids, supporting survivors of domestic violence, or sustaining women in vocational programs. Hunger undermines healing, learning, and hope. Through community gardens, feeding programs, and partnerships with local farmers, we’re ensuring every child and caregiver receives the nourishment they need to thrive.
Quite simply: No Food, No Life.

🌍 WHY IT MATTERS
In this region, preventable and treatable illnesses still claim children’s lives every day—not for lack of medicine, but for lack of access. Too many young girls leave school before puberty, robbed of opportunity by poverty, hunger, or early marriage. Mothers, unable to afford lodging, sleep on hospital floors beside their sick children. Women are abandoned when new wives arrive, left without shelter, income, or hope.
Shoe4Africa is changing that story. We’re building hospitals where every child is treated with dignity, schools where learning sparks lifelong opportunity, and safe spaces where women heal, learn, and grow. We’re feeding the hungry, empowering caregivers, and proving that when you invest in women and children, you strengthen an entire community.
This is more than charity—it’s the architecture of lasting change.
We work with real, tangible solutions, built to last.
