OUR NAME
ACACIA OF HOPE
Our name comes from the sacred African Acacia tree. Far away, its breathtaking silhouette displays Africa’s beauty, while its thorns show Africa’s strength. Acacia of Hope wants to continue that beauty and strength by sharing God’s love and giving opportunities to those in Kenya, most notably in Kibera.
