Safe Home & family support
A Safe Home for vulnerable children, with daily care, learning and social work that keeps families at the centre wherever possible.
Lilongwe · Malawi
Every child deserves
a place to belong.
We walk alongside vulnerable and street-connected children in Malawi, building safety, relationships and opportunities for a different future.
Our mission
I·HEART Project is a local Malawian NGO. We believe lasting change grows from relationships, practical care and the dignity of every person — slowly, together, and from the ground up.

Who we are
It began with showing up.
From street outreach in 2019 to a new Safe Home chapter in 2026, relationships have been the heart of the journey. Daniel and Satomi Novotny work alongside Malawian colleagues and community partners, with children’s safety and belonging at the centre. Together with the distinct Mudzi wa Moyo initiative, we are looking towards a future of care, land and opportunity.

Mudzi wa Moyo · A developing vision
Growing toward resilience
Current farming includes crops, poultry and irrigation development. With Mudzi wa Moyo, a distinct collaborating initiative, the long-term ambition is for healthy land, nutritious food and future skills opportunities to support lasting care. This is a developing model, not a claim of self-financing homes.
