New Life Mission is a Christian non-profit organisation working to fight poverty and support vulnerable people, mainly in Kenya, with fundraising and administrative bases in Norway and Sweden. Founded in 1978, it runs a children's home for children with a parent in prison or who are orphaned, girls' protection homes, a daily meal programme, mobile health clinics, water projects, vocational training and the Lifebag women's income project in Nairobi's Kware slum and Maasai areas such as Mashuru and Magadi. It also runs churches in Kenya, prison visits and evangelism, and supports families to keep children at home where possible. Donations are received from private individuals, organisations, second-hand shops and congregations, and the organisation states that over 95% of gifts sent from Norway go to Kenya. Its Kenyan head office is in Ongata Rongai, outside Nairobi.
