GoodWill Vulnerable Children’s Home
At Goodwill Mozambique, we provide a safe and nurturing refuge for vulnerable children in the heart of Vilanculos. Our home currently cares for 20 children between the ages of 7 and 18, with space to support up to 48. We offer far more than shelter. We provide love, stability, education, guidance, and the daily care each child needs to grow with dignity and hope. At Goodwill, we are a family, committed to helping every child build a brighter, stronger future.
The Story of Us
GoodWill Mozambique
Our Journey
In 2021, Jeffrey Henseler, in collaboration with Passport Legacy, established GoodWill Vulnerable Children’s Home. This sanctuary is dedicated to offering vulnerable children a secure and nurturing environment where their fundamental rights are upheld, their emotional well-being is fostered, and their education is prioritized. Supported by the committed GoodWill team, the children are given a home where they can thrive and grow into strong, independent adults.
Our StoryWhat We Do
At Goodwill Mozambique, we believe every child deserves the chance to learn, grow, heal, and discover what they are capable of.
Daily Extra Lessons with a Tutor

Emotional and Mental Wellbeing Support
