We believe that the best way to ensure that the children at Marsh Children’s Home have a better life is to provide them with an atmosphere of dignity and respect in a safe environment full of Love. Education is our primary goal. All the children are required to go to school and complete their studies. A good education is the best way of ending the cycle of poverty that exists in the communities from which these wonderful children come. Learn more about the Four Principles.
