While we are trying to escape the blazing heat, the residents of Kasisi are pulling on their hats and hoods. It’s the peak of the African winter here! July and August are the coldest months, with nighttime temperatures dropping to a maximum of 10 degrees Celsius. Fortunately, our children are bravely resisting infections. The stubborn virus we dealt with last month has also been contained. The children’s spirits and boundless energy haven’t left with the warm temperatures. At Kasisi, we always have plenty of those. The cold outside is just an excuse to run faster and play harder on the playground A school kit includes notebooks, allowing children to study at home. It also includes a pair of shoes, which, if not for Kasisi, they would have to borrow from their siblings. And finally, a delicious, healthy sandwich in the backpack, which gives them the energy they need for their studies. Just like the sandwich their mother would prepare. You can pack one into their backpack today—from right here, from your own home.
