Orphans and Destitute Children

Peter is in a secondary school.

His father lost his job and has been unemployed for almost a year which means the family cannot afford Peter’s school fees. Peter was sent home, being ask to come back with at least 13,000 KSh (£105) and clear the balance later.

We raised £240 and Peter finished his school education.

Peter is now studying at teacher training college in Mombasa. Kipepeo worked with another charity to fund a scholarship for his course.

Many thanks to all who helped. You changed Peter’s life.

Ian is a bright boy. Ian is in 8th grade. He stopped attending school because his parents were unable to pay the costs. Thanks to our donors, we were able to find a new school for Ian and allowed him to continue learning.

Ian no longer needs our help.

Thank you for your support.

Ruth is a girl from the slum in Likoni. We started supporting her when she was ten years old. She is an orphan and for two years, she has lived with the family of our director in Kenya, Haggai Amonde. Ruth is smart and clever, Haggai enrolled her in the 2nd class of a local elementary school.

Ruth has now found a new family and lives on the coast in a village outside Mombasa. She no longer needs our help.

Thank you for your support.

Christopher was to ask to leave an overcrowded orphanage because he was not able to attract a sponsor. He was fourteen years old and was left without any means to support himself.

We have taken him on and helped him complete the primary school. We have sponsored his education, purchased his school uniform and shoes (compulsory in all schools) as well as textbooks, notebooks, pens and pencils, and we also paid for his accommodation.  Haggai Amonde was giving him private lessons for six months in order for Christopher to catch up with the rest of the class.

To help Christopher complete his primary education cost us in total just over £1,200.

Christopher now works as a shop assistant in Mombasa. He no longer needs our help.

Thank you very much for all your donations.

When we first met Ritah she was thirteen years old and wanted to become a detective. We supported her throughout the secondary school.

Thank you for your support.
