KENNETH & JACOB’S HOUSE is a non-profit making organization founded in January 2020 by two couples(Kenneth and Jacob). The two were touched by the challenges faced by young LGBTQ youth in society, mostly during the pandemic period, they, therefore, decided to pilot a shelter project by successfully hosting 10 LGBTQ individuals in crisis at their private home apartment for a span of 6months.

Not every homeless young person sleeps on the street.
Many are on someone’s couch tonight, praying they don’t get asked to leave tomorrow.

For LGBTQ+ youth, “home” is often the place they had to escape. At Kenneth & Jacob’s House, we’re creating new homes filled with safety, love, and community.

Your support helps turn fear into hope, and statistics into second chances. 💜

He left home with hope in his heart, searching for work and a better future. But instead of finding safety, he returned to loss, pain, and uncertainty. No young person should have to carry this kind of burden alone. Every story like this is a reminder that safety, dignity, and a place to heal should never be out of reach.
