The name of the christian non-profit was treasures in heaven, and they funded and managed the safe home project for the next 12 years. In 2017, Orphan's lifeline agreed to handle the oversight and financial management of safe home in partnership with treasures in Heaven. Safe home is a government-Licensed non-profit children's home situated on 50 Deeded acres the home consists of dormitories, a kitchen, a chapel, a clinic, and a Christian school where all the orphaned children attend, Another 150 village children attend the school for a small tuition, bringing the total enrollment to around 300 children.
