How We Work

Our clients are encouraged to contribute to the shelter community. We believe in breaking cycles of dependency and fostering responsibility. While we do not charge mandatory fees, clients are asked to participate in daily tasks such as gardening, cleaning, or assisting in educational programs to "earn" their stay and build valuable skills.

Those unable to contribute physically receive support through our general funds and donations. This approach ensures equality and mutual respect between staff, volunteers, and clients.

For the safety and well-being of everyone at Amani Home, the following are strictly prohibited:

• No persons under the influence of or in possession of drugs, alcohol, or weapons
• Intoxicated individuals or those with drugs will receive a warning and must wait outside until sober
• Drugs brought to the premises will be confiscated and destroyed
• Weapons or dangerous implements are not allowed and will be confiscated
• No smoking inside any building - designated outdoor areas only
• Men are not allowed in women's dorms and vice versa without permission
• Do not enter kitchen or storage areas without supervisor permission

Consequences: Violations may result in warnings, meeting with social workers, or termination of services. Violence toward clients or staff will result in immediate termination. Amani Home reserves the right to involve security or authorities if necessary.

Note: Your stay is temporary. Personal belongings left after departure will be kept for 7 days, after which they may be donated to those in need.
