MusaweNkosi Ministries ( Musa) was founded in October 2001 by Gavin and Elain Charlton. “MusaweNkosi” means God’s grace in Zulu. They wanted to show God’s love to orphans and the community in a practical way . To date we have 200 orphans on their books but this is being added to weekly.

They work in two ways:
Firstly by assisting those grandparents or relatives who are able to look after the children to receive the foster care grants that they are entitled to. This enables them to go to school as they pay school fees and buy stationery that the children need. They are also feeding those who are most needy.

Secondly their aim is to build cluster foster homes. This is for those children who have no relatives to care for them or whose relatives are abusive. They also feel that God designed the family for a reason and therefore they want these children to have Biblical and practical guidance so that that the children grow up with a family pattern.
