Glory Christian Education Centre
The Only Free Christian School in Kenya
Restoring Hope Through Education, Faith, and Care
Glory Christian Education Centre is a faith-based school and rescue home in Nairobi, Kenya, founded by Beatrice Malika. It serves orphaned and vulnerable children living in extreme poverty by providing education, shelter and daily care-completely free of charge.
What We Do
Education
We provide quality Christian education to hundreds of children from Nairobi's most underserved communities, including Ngomongo, Njathaini, and Kiambiu. Our goal is to break the cycle of poverty through learning.
Daily Care
Children receive nutritious meals, school uniforms, shoes, and essential support - meeting needs many families cannot provide
Ongoing Support
Our mission is made possible through donations and child sponsorships that fund teachers, supplies, and daily operations.
Our Mission
To rescue, feed, clothe, shelter, educate, restore, and empower orphaned and vulnerable children and their families through the hope of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our Vision
To provide a safe environment where children are nurtured, restored, and equipped - while empowering families and communities toward self-reliance.
Our Core Values
Love, Compassion, Humility, Hope, Integrity, Accountability, Transparency, Honesty
Why It Matters
Many children we serve face extreme food insecurity and lack access to education. At Glory Christian Education Centre, we believe transformation begins with a child, then reaches families, and ultimately impacts entire communities.

Our Expanding Global Footprint
Today, our Christian Education Centre has expanded to include three vibrant school campuses across East Africa, providing quality Christian education and hope to over 1,200 students.
Our primary hub in Nairobi serves a community of over 700 children, while our reach has extended across borders into Mombasa.
In Mombasa, we now operate two distinct campuses: a second location supporting 300 students and a third campus that has rapidly grown to accommodate over 200 additional students.
This growth reflects our unwavering commitment to reaching the most vulnerable children, ensuring that regardless of their location, they have access to the resources and support needed to build a brighter future.
