Support for family Homes in Nginda, Kenya

Dear Friend,

You subscribed to email updates from Family Homes by GRUPPO ALEIMAR ONLUS, a project on GlobalGiving. Here's the unedited update from the field:

“St. Hellen – Hellena Mundia organization”. This is the name of a group formed by middle-class families in Embu district, Kenya. Their aim is to address the challenge of the orphaned or abandoned kids of Nginda community. In fact, they have estimated that there are around 88 of these kids, deprived of a bright future. One of them is Millicent, a 10-years old kid who has been abandoned by her father. She has 4 brothers and they all live with their mum, who is struggling to take care of them all.

Their main chance to overcome such a situation of economic, social and cultural poverty, is education. In other words, the possibility of going to school.

Kenyan education system is indeed well developed and offers several schooling opportunities. Millicent is attending primary school with joy and enthusiasm, and is well aware of how lucky she is for this opportunity.

However, kids are given access only if provided with school supplies and uniforms. Trapped in a situation of extreme poverty, Millicent will be forced to drop out of school. Sometimes her family does not even have the resources to buy everyday-food, let alone a school uniform! 

St. Hellen – Hellena Mundia organization hence is working to give Millicent and many other kids some practical assistance.

Millicent is a brilliant student and with your help, we can give her a chance for more education, for a brighter future and a better life.
