LIFTING UP THE DESTITUTE ELDERLY FOR 20 YEARS WITH KINDNESS

Celebrate the Achievements of Michael's House

Michael’s House, Inc. began in 2003 as a non-profit grassroots organization to serve the elderly poor in the developing world who have become invisible, who receive no funds from government organizations or other large aid foundations. It is through gifts that they would have a face and dignity in their daily lives.

We endeavored to be good stewards of the contributions of you, our donors. More than 98% of our contributions went to our projects.

The generosity of our supporters has afforded us to care for the destitute elderly in Africa (Ethiopia, Togo, Rwanda, Tanzania, Nigeria, Kenya. Zimbabwe, Uganda, South Sudan, and Burkina Faso), Honduras and Thailand.
