I am extremely excited to announce the expansion of the children’s home in Kenya.  With the kids growing and getting older it is time to have a seperate boys/girls house. The group that was assisting with monthly support is no longer able to support so we will be doing a combined fundraiser to complete the second building and raise funds for one year of support.  The estimated cost for the building is $30,000.  The estimated yearly operating budget is $36,000.  This includes food, clothing, utilities, schooling and security for the kids.  There is still zero salaries associated with this mission.  We are thankful to be able to put all of the money back into the kids.  Matt Hulsey, Myself and our Servpro business have been supporting this for years, and will continue to do so.  I realize $66,000 is a lot of money, but we have faith the needs will be met. Also, until 5/20 we will be matching your donations dollar for dollar so whatever you give will be doubled (up to $20k total). We know it can be done “little by little”.  Rachel will be going next month to check on the progress and I will be going after she gets back. Thank you to everyone who has helped in the past and those who will help in the future. If you have any questions or want to hear more about this reach out to me. This mission is changing these kids lives and the ripple effect is incredible! 

There are several ways to give:

You can also make a check to Servant United (fully tax deductible) and mail it to 3810 Paule Ave., St. Louis, MO 63125 (we will be using this 501c3 until the one direct for the orphanage is ready).  Thank you!

Hi everyone! I wanted to post an update on the Children’s Home in Kenya. We currently have 17 children and now have boys in one building and girls in the other. We also support several other orphans’ education and food (They live with other loved ones). The plan in 2024 is to increase the home to 20 children (there is great need in the area and many children are without parents). They are all attending school and doing well. They continue to mature and grow. Maintaining all of this costs approximately $2,500 USD per month. Money donated goes directly to the Children’s home (their home, security, education, transportation, food, clothing). We are grateful that God continues to provide in many different ways through all of those who give and support these children. 

If you wish to donate, you can do so here. If you prefer to mail a check it can be made payable to Servant United Ministries and sent to:    5214 Romaine Spring Dr.        Fenton, MO 63026

Because of all of your generous donations, we were able to purchase the 4 x 4 vehicle and are using it to get to remote villages and areas to help distribute food and clothing to orphans.

I am very excited to announce that I will be headed back to Kenya in mid October. Your donations are allowing us to move three additional children into the home and send three older children to high school. We will be using a portion of the donations for extra education, healthcare and updates to the home.

We have been very blessed to be able to complete the second home. Now that there are two homes, we have girls in one and boys in the other. Over the last year, we have been able to move in several new children and reunite some siblings who were separated for some time. There are currently 18 kids living in the homes.  The goal this year is to bring this to 20. God has been speaking to us and we feel that the goal is to go deeper and not wider in 2023.  Many orphanages keep kids until they finish high school and then they send them off.  We want these kids to have a home and bed until they graduate college. It is a major investment, but our goal is to be able to fund college or trade school for each child we have. This will give them a future and allow them to make a difference. Watching this project and the kids grow for the last 8 years has been amazing and nothing short of a miracle. Even in the darkest of times, there was a seed planted which now brings hope to many along the way. We want to thank all the people who have supported us. There still is a great need. The money raised here will go directly to the kid's needs - home, food, security, education, supplies, etc. 

With Love, 

Kevin and Rachel Thole
