History

Solid Rock Foundation History

Over an all-you-can-eat lunch at the Country Buffet in Englewood, Colorado, Mwangi Ndegwa shared his story with new friend, Matthew Bachali. Both were born in 1969 but their childhoods could not have been more diverse. Mwangi, a poor Kenyan who received his first pair of shoes in 9th grade and Matthew, a Midwest boy who enjoyed the comfort of the United States in the 70’s and 80’s. What bonded them together was a shared passion for Jesus Christ, and what God placed on their hearts together that day in 2010..

Orphan Care

Solid Rock Foundation Orphan Care

“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress…” James 1:27

We are passionate about the children in our villages.  The most vulnerable, the orphaned and abandoned, are of first importance.  Imagine waking each day and not knowing if the place you are in is safe, loving, and trustworthy.  We are not okay with this reality. Solid Rock Foundation is committed to doing its part, currently we have children’s homes in two different counties in Kenya. 

Vision

Sharing Life – Bringing Hope Simple words to say… challenging words to live.

When we formed Solid Rock Foundation in 2013, we did not realize how powerful these four words would be to our vision and direction of this ministry.Solid Rock Foundation was created to share life together, both Kenyan and American. It takes the creativity, ingenuity and passion of both cultures, working together to bring a Jesus-loving approach to all that we do. It is challenging to carry out, but we passionately believe that without both sets of ideas, our work will fall flat and miss God’s Kingdom perspective in the effort.
