Provide food, shelter, clothing, medical care, education, love for needy children at the Joseph Waweru Home in Kenya. These children are victims of HIV/AIDS, orphaned, neglected, and abandoned.
Kenya's 2.4 million orphans suffer a host of physical, sociological and psychological problems including lack of nutrition, education, and abuse. Only 5% have hope of completing a minimal level of education. Without assistance they will be uneducated, unskilled, and destitute adults. We concentrate our efforts in providing an atmosphere where they receive individualized attention, with the support of a family, while learning skills necessary to mature as responsible, self-sufficient adults.
Provide a HOME with three meals a day, medical care, education, tutoring, clothing, gardens, dairy goats and knowledge of sustainable living. This is accomplished through a 1-5 or 1-8 surrogate parent/child ratio and focuses on individualized care. Thank you Global Giving donors for helping us meet out 2011 budget. We are now working on our 2012 budget. Please help us help more children.
Annual budget provides at least: 17,520 meals to children, 16 students' primary or high school fees, school uniforms, shoes, backpacks, 192 months full HOME sponsorship. These children become responsible adults.
"You can imagine someone paying your school fees and some of them you have not yet seen them or met. If it was not for this organization, I could not have finished my secondary education."
