Grace came to Kasisi when she wasn’t even two years old yet. At first, we were told that both her parents had passed away and that her only relative was unable to care for her. Over time, however, it turned out that Grace’s father was alive. He came to our Home to visit his daughter. After a long conversation and learning about his situation, we decided that, for the time being, it would be best for Grace to stay at Kasisi, in a safe and caring environment. We do not rule out the possibility that in the future she may be able to live with her father.
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.
