She is in Kasisi with her twin sister, Ireen. Their parents’ joy when the girls were born was immense. They were supposed to live happily and show their daughters the world. Unfortunately, life wrote a very different story for this family…
Just two weeks after giving birth, the girls’ mother passed away. Their father was left all alone – with his grief, with his love for his little daughters, and with his helplessness in facing daily challenges. He works as a shoemaker and is disabled – he moves around in a wheelchair. Despite his great determination, he could not take care of such young children by himself. He asked us for help, and we assured him that his two little princesses would receive everything they need at Kasisi.
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.
