Lontia was born prematurely at 8 months and brought to Kasisi just 8 days later. Her mother died in childbirth. She was brought here by her father, who lives in a nearby village and already has a couple of children. The conditions there would not allow Lontia to survive, especially since she requires specialist medical care. At Kasisi, she is in good hands!
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.
