Jimmia Women Rescue Centre is a nonprofit organization based in Nakuru, Kenya. It was founded and Directed by James Mburu Kagotho who had this vision and dream to open a peaceful safe haven for the vulnerable and abused women and their children. James is married and a father of two; Naomi and Noah. James or Jimmy as he is commonly known to the local people was born and raised in Nakuru and this vision was heavily planted in his heart since when he was a small boy.

Jimmy was deeply bothered to see the suffering of women around the slum neighborhoods of Nakuru and especially every morning when going to school. He could pass along a famous street (Kanu Street) known for prostitution and many occasions he saw women being beaten with drunk men and made a promise to himself that one day when he grows up he will build something to help such women. Jimmia is a referral home where women are referred from the social system in Kenya, for example, the police station, children department, court system, local schools, local hospitals and other organizations around the country.

At JIMMIA Organization we plant a seed of love in the lives of abused and vulnerable women and their children. It is our prayer that the seed of love we plant grows.
When we plant a seed of love to one woman, she will plant a seed of love to her family and to her surroundings and it won´t stop with her – her planted seed will grow from one generation to another.

JOIN US IN PLANTING A SEED OF LOVE IN KENYA!

We assist abused, vulnerable and poor women through feeding programs, home visits, counseling, and offer shelter in our rescue center in case of abuse physically and psychologically. We also help them through women fellowship to learn new skills like making necklaces and bracelets out of recycled paper. This enables them to generate an income, to improve their livelihood.
