About Daddy's Home

A sanctuary of love, care, and dignity — built on faith, driven by compassion, sustained by community.

Our Story

From a Vision to a Movement of Hope

Daddy's Home was born from the heart and calling of Rev. Fr. Dr. Hendricks John Mambwe AJ, who witnessed firsthand the suffering of children without families and elderly people abandoned without care.

In many African communities — including Tanzania — extended family networks that once cared for the vulnerable have been weakened by urbanization, migration, and economic pressures. Daddy's Home responds to this crisis with a bold, integrated model of care.

Located in Mbopo, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, the project will construct a modern, four-story facility combining residential care, healthcare, spiritual nourishment, education, and community empowerment — all under one roof.
