Because of your kindness and generosity, our christmas meal and Back-to-school Drive was a beautiful success.
Together , we raised $644 USD, which enabled us to bring light into homes that had almost given up hope.
In Loosuk Village and Inchingei Village, Samburu, Children who were unsure if they would eat that day sat together and shared a warm Christmas meal. In Kibera slums, Nairobi, orphans and vulnerable families experienced they joy of community instead of hunger and isolation.
Because of that support: 96 vulnerable children in Loosuk recieved warm meal, 30 struggling families were fed, 36 orphans and vulnerable children in kibera were supported.
We purchased: 300Kg of rice, 30 liters of cooking oil, a goat for meat, potatoes, onions, Vegetables, and sugar, and School shoes for 3 needy children.
It may sound simple. But for these children, it meant everything.
For some, it was th olnly proper meal during the holiday season. For three children , new school shoes meant walking back to school with dignity instead of shame.
While we are grateful for what was achieved , many more children were left waiting.
Many families still struggle daily with: Food insecurity, Lack of schoolsupplies, Poverty that steals children's dreams.
We are preparaing for the next food distibution and school meal support drive-but we cannot do it alone. $10 USD helps feed a child, $supports a family meal, $50 provides food supplies for multiple households and $100+ helps combines food support and education assitance
No amount is too small. Every dollar becomes rice,oil, School shoes, or a shared meal.
when you give , you are not just donating food. You are restoring dignity. You are strenghthening families. You are protecting a child's future.
This christmas showed us what is possible when compassionate people come together. Together, we can turn hunger into hope
With Gratitude and hope,
