A Christian charity, our mission is to tell people about Jesus and to feed & educate the hungry and poor in rural Madagascar.
Our Vision
“In Andrainarivo, next to Lake Mantasoa, there was no village centre, but we have made one, providing holistic care (care for the whole person, Body, Mind and Spirit) with a shop, school, medical room, employment, training, meetings and worship opportunities for all ages. Not only for Andrainarivo's population (mostly guards and fishermen families), but from across the lake in Andranobe and surrounding areas where many of our school children come from.”
Martin and Mary Barber- Founders

Come and stay in one of our guest houses. All profit from these houses goes straight into supporting the children’s education, employment and opportunities for locals.
Our School
We believe that Education, free for children at point of delivery, is essential for the community to grow and prosper.
Our education programme is built on interactive teaching where children are free to investigate and explore their world.

We create opportunities for new teachers to continuing their training with new pedagogical methods. We help teachers make their classrooms engaging and successful.
Local Jobs
