In 2006, Eastern Cares partnered with Teleios Ministries and Mpeli and Neema Mwaisambe to open the Daily Bread Life Children’s Home in Iringa, Tanzania, bringing Eastern’s President and CEO, Kip Miller, and wife, Kim Miller’s dream of building an orphanage to life. DBLCH has since provided a loving home and an education to more than 130 children, DBLCH has also helped launch seven businesses that provide more than four dozen jobs, as well as goods and services to the village.
