About Home Care

Our story, our calling, and the women who bring our mission to life every day.

Peace Nihombere

Founder


Home Care Burundi provides holistic support to vulnerable widows, single mothers, and orphans through spiritual healing, forgiveness counseling, and professional tailoring and business skills training.
Peace Nihombere is the founder and driving force behind Home Care Burundi. Guided by her Christian faith and a deep desire to help heal the broken-hearted, she built the organization on three pillars: Christian counseling, radical forgiveness, and practical self-reliance. Working in a community marked by social and cultural divisions, she made forgiveness the cornerstone of Home Care's approach. She also established a training academy in tailoring, sewing, and business management, empowering widows, single mothers, and orphans to become fully self-reliant knowing that they are deeply loved by Jesus-Christ.
