Rescuing 100 girls from early marriages in Kenya

On behalf of Juhudi Children in Crisis I wish to thank all individuals who donated to this project to help this girls continue with their education. The little coin you donated brought a smile to these girls. We humbled to share the progress of the two girls Ummy and Lydia who have made it to stay in school through your support.

Ummy is in form 4 waiting to sit for her Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education. At least now she is determined and focused to her studies and believe she will pass her final exams well and join University. We were able to visit her in the school and see how she is doing. She told us this,  “Am happy for being in school fulltime for the two terms ,last year I was always absent in school which made me to drop in my academics but now I have recovered the lost time and am doing very well hoping to get a good grade which will enabled me to go university next year. I want to thank Juhudi Children for helping me a lot to pursue my education. It is my duty to work hard and come out successful.” This was a true indication that you people you have made great impact in live of this girl.

Lydia also to the hand, she is in form 3 doing very well in her studies. She got motivated from being supported by Juhudi children and started improving in her studies. Before she was doing very poor but now she is among the top girls doing well in her class. She was even given responsibilities to be the class secretary of her class. She says that, “ My hope had lost completely to continue with my education. I was thinking to run away from home and go to the city to look for a job but after Juhudi founded me I had to change my mind and focus to my education. I saw this as the beginning of my new life. Am now happy in school doing very well. I have become a leader to my class which has helped me to build confidence and self-esteem. Thank you so much Juhudi children for making my dream alive.”

As organization we have witnessed this and we remain vigilant to see this girls complete their education well. Your continued support you always give to us will help them to complete their education. Thank you so much.
