About JAFOA
Jehovah Alive for Old Age — Caring for the elderly, orphaned vulnerable children, and youths with dignity and love.
How It All Began
JAFOA (Jehovah Alive for Old Age) was founded on the belief that every elderly person deserves to live their golden years with dignity, respect, and joy. What started as a small community outreach program has grown into a full-fledged organization dedicated to transforming the lives of the elderly — and, by extension, orphaned vulnerable children and youths.
Our journey began when our founder witnessed the isolation and neglect faced by many elderly members of our community. Moved by compassion, a small group of volunteers came together to provide regular visits, meals, and companionship to the elderly in need.
Today, we run multiple programs spanning healthcare, nutrition, community working groups, emergency response, child and youth support, and advocacy — touching the lives of hundreds of individuals across our community.
