When families are cared for,
nations thrive.
We exist to restore hope, dignity, and opportunity to vulnerable families — from child-led homes and young mothers to elderly caregivers and special-needs children.
Badicare Foundation is building Safe Families and Strong Communities across Kenya and Africa.

A Story That Defines Us
In a quiet village in Nyandarua, 14-year-old Brian wakes before dawn to cook porridge for his two sisters.
Their parents died two years ago. With no adult at home, Brian became both father and brother.
When Badicare's community volunteers met Brian, we provided immediate relief — food, clothing, and school support — but more importantly, we restored his childhood. Today, Brian is back in school, and his story has inspired others to believe that even broken families can heal.
Badicare exists for children like Brian.
For young mothers who dream of finishing school.
For elders who just want to be remembered.
For families forgotten by circumstance — but not by us.
Our Impact
Since inception, we've worked to turn compassion into measurable change. Every number tells a story of restored dignity.
Our Approach
CARE → EMPOWER → SUSTAIN
We don't do charity — we create systems of care that live beyond aid.
Care
Immediate family relief — food, healthcare, school access, safety.
Empower
Skills, education, and mentorship that rebuild independence.
Sustain
Community-driven programs that ensure lasting transformation.
