By Linda Wilkinson | Founder Chikumbuso
Last week Chikumbuso lost one of its cherished grandmothers. Let's call her "Esther". Esther joined Chikumbuso ten years ago after losing all eight of her children and her husband. She had seen great suffering in her life but was comforted and sustained by the new family that she found at Chikumbuso. Everday her caregiver would visit Esther on her way to Chikumbuso providing emotional support as well as food and material comfort.
The power of Chikumbuso is that we are your family in life and that we are your family in death. She passed knowing that she would be buried with dignity and that her grandchildren would continue to have opportunitys and an education at Chikumbuso. Thanks to your support we have ben able to provide these things to Esther and her family. Her neighbors and friends send you all their blessings for a job well done.
