Founder's Welcome
I am often asked what inspired me to start TendaiCare Foundation. The honest answer is not a single moment, but a lifetime of knowing that every person—especially every child—deserves to be loved without condition.
As a trained counsellor with a qualification in Psychology, I have learned how deeply early experiences shape a life. But it is not my training alone that guides this work; it is a compassionate heart, given to me by God, that refuses to look away from suffering.
I founded TendaiCare to be a bridge—between rural communities and opportunity, between vulnerable children and hope, between despair and dignity.
In my rare quiet moments, you will either find me with a book, planning my next journey, staying active through aerobics, and winding down with some good music or doing what I love most: reading and sharing the Word of God. It is my faith that sustains me, and it is my hope that through this foundation, you will see that faith made visible.
Thank you for standing with us.
