We, the Daughters of Charity of St Vincent De Paul, are an International Community of Apostolic Life within the Catholic Church. We were founded by St Vincent De Paul and St Louise De Marillac in 1633 in France. We first came to Kenya in October 2001 at the invitation of the Vincentian Fathers (Congregation of the Mission, DePaul) and opened our first 2 houses in Thigio, Limuru and Chepnyal, West Pokot in January 2002. Since then we have opened 3 other houses in Chanzo, Nairobi in 2004, Matisi, Kitale and Kiio, Kitui in 2009.
