Mully Children’s Family (MCF) operates eleven campuses across Kenya and Tanzania, providing holistic care that includes shelter, nutrition, education, healthcare, and vocational training. Since 1989, MCF has rescued and rehabilitated thousands of vulnerable and orphaned children, growing into a multi-campus nonprofit dedicated to restoring hope. Each campus serves local communities by offering a loving family environment and essential services to at-risk children and families. The summaries below describe each MCF location, its region, the services offered, and the populations served.
Kenya
MCF Ndalani – Machakos County, Kenya
Established in 1995, MCF Ndalani is the headquarters of Mully Children’s Family. Located in Yatta Sub-County, it grew from a small, arid piece of land into a thriving 200-acre campus. Ndalani provides residential rehabilitation for children and youth, education from primary to university level, vocational training, medical services, and sports. It is also a hub for agricultural projects and environmental stewardship, with tree planting and water supply systems revitalizing the semi-arid region.
MCF Yatta – Machakos County, Kenya
Founded in 2001, MCF Yatta began as a sanctuary for vulnerable girls and teen mothers who had experienced child marriages, FGM, child labor, or life on the streets. Over time, it expanded to serve boys as well. The 504-acre campus includes residential blocks, a medical centre, Mully College, vocational training facilities, and schools. It sustains itself through farming, poultry, horticulture, irrigation, and water projects. Current developments include Mully Mission Hospital, poultry farming, and plans for Mully International University.
MCF Malindi – Kilifi County, Kenya
Established in 2021, MCF Malindi is a rescue, rehabilitation, and training centre for vulnerable girls in Kenya’s coastal region. It provides education, vocational skills in hairdressing, fashion design, childcare, and entrepreneurship, along with spiritual and emotional support. The centre emphasizes sustainable living through projects like goat and sheep farming, while upgraded classrooms and children’s facilities have expanded its impact.
MCF Vipingo – Kilifi County
Founded in 2005 in Kilifi County, MCF Vipingo was created to address poverty in one of Kenya’s poorest constituencies. It serves hundreds of children through education, feeding, healthcare, and psychosocial support. The program tackles issues such as child labor, commercial sex work, early pregnancies, and HIV/AIDS exposure. It provides a steady water supply, a primary school, and community-based rehabilitation programs to break cycles of poverty.
MCF Kipsongo – Trans Nzoia County
Located in the Kipsongo slum near Kitale, MCF Kipsongo has supported vulnerable children and families since the 1990s. It began with street outreach by Dr. Charles Mulli and grew into a centre providing healthcare, food, and later a communal toilet to improve hygiene. In 2006, MCF launched a primary school and feeding program, helping children return to school and reducing street life. Today, children from Kipsongo have progressed through MCF’s larger campuses and into universities, demonstrating lasting transformation.
MCF Lodwar – Turkana County
Established in 2011, MCF Lodwar serves children and families in Turkana County, one of Kenya’s most drought-stricken and impoverished regions. Its programs include emergency relief for over 3,000 families annually, free primary and secondary schooling for more than 850 children, and two boreholes that supply clean water to schools and local communities. Lodwar also runs feeding programs that provide hot meals, often the only meal of the day, for children, youth, and elderly community members.
MCF Ngong (Global Hope Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre) – Kajiado County
Founded in 2013 by Joseph Njoroge, an MCF alumnus, Global Hope focuses on rescuing, rehabilitating, and reintegrating street children in Ngong. Supported by Dr. Charles and Esther Mulli since 2014, the centre has rescued over 300 children, with more than 150 completing high school and many advancing to college. It provides shelter, food, medical care, education, and spiritual guidance, while also working to reunite children with families whenever possible.
Tanzania
MCF Ukerewe – Mwanza Region
MCF expanded into Tanzania in 2007 to meet the growing needs of vulnerable children. After beginning in Dar es Salaam, operations were relocated to Ukerewe Island in Mwanza due to available land. The centre now serves around 200 children with healthcare, primary education, feeding programs, scholarships, and clean water initiatives. It also acts as a resource for the local community and actively incorporates evangelism into its mission.
MCF Dar Es Salaam – Dar Es Salaam Region
The original Tanzanian base, located in the Mbagala slum, remains an active rescue centre. It provides shelter, nutrition, and education for children experiencing homelessness and poverty in the city.
MCF Bagamoyo – Coast Region
Recognizing MCF’s impact, the Tanzanian government allocated 1,000 acres in Bagamoyo for expansion. Planned developments include a commercial farm, primary and secondary schools, a vocational training centre, and a community hospital. Once complete, this campus will enable MCF to support more than 2,000 children annually, alongside providing services to the broader community.
