By Andrew Mullens | Kimbilio Support
Thank you so much for your financial support for the work of Kimbilio in reuniting street children with their families. It is hear-warming to see a family back together again.
The Kimbilio carers have to establish the reason for the child leaving home and then make contact with their family. Often they may live some distance from Lubumbashi. If the reason for the child's departure is financial, then Kimbilio will consider a grant to the family, or a sack of flour, or payment of school fees. Generally, it will be many months of patient negotiation before the conditions are right for the child's return home.
In the first two months of this year, fourteen boys and five girls were reunited with their families. A great effort by the team of Kimbilio carers in Lubumbashi.
