History:

River of Life Homes, Inc. was founded by God through Lovina Iheke in 2004.  Through her personal experiences with domestic violence, Lovina realized that she would like to help other individuals affected by abuse.  In 2004, during a 40 Days of Purpose (The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren) bible study held by her church, Lovina realized her calling to help others by providing them with the necessary tools to be free from domestic violence.

In 2005, River of Life Homes received its nonprofit status and purchased two homes to be used as emergency and transitional housing for women, children and men experiencing abusive situations.  The agency admitted its first clients in 2006. Since its founding, ROLH has helped several individuals through emergency services, transitional housing and support programs.
