House of Towdah opened its doors on 2 November 2015 to love and care for orphaned, abused and abandoned children who need a place they can call home and needy children from very poor families who cannot afford to look after them.
We believe that each child is precious to God and that He wants us all to care for the orphans, the widows and the distressed.
House of Towdah also believes that education is of the utmost importance and every child should be given the opportunity to go as far as he or she can in his or her education.
We hope to encourage all our children to be a light to others in need when they have the skills and means to help others.
VISION
To transform the lives of orphaned and impoverished children and raise strong and courageous citizens with godly character and values.
MISSION
To provide a safe and warm home for orphans and needy children where they will be loved, protected and cared for.
We do this by:
Why the name “Towdah”?
It is a Hebrew word that literally means, “an extension of the hand in adoration, avowal, or acceptance.”
In the Psalms, it is used for thanking God for blessings not yet received as well as blessings already at hand.
Our Towdah logo reflects three aspects:
Let us come before Him with thanksgiving (towdah) and extol Him with music and song. Psalm 95:2
Let them sacrifice thank (towdah) offerings and tell of His works with songs of joy. Psalm 107:22
We pray that House of Towdah will be a house of joy and thanksgiving, giving praise always to our Lord.
19 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
