About Child Rescue Project
Child Rescue Program focuses on the reduction of child mortality. It is designed to address the critical health needs of expectant mothers and children aged 0-5 years in Kiambiu informal settlement in Nairobi County.
The program’s primary objective is to reduce mortality and morbidity rates among these vulnerable communities improving their health standards and promoting healthier lifestyles through mentorship and support. The program aims to empower families to make healthier choices, break the cycle of poor health, and create a healthier, brighter future for the entire community.
The program has trained a team of community health volunteers, known as community mentor mothers and fathers, who reside within the community. Their close proximity allows them to offer meaningful support and assistance to the community members, ensuring a strong and effective network of care.
