Biography
Emmanuel is a sweet and thoughtful young man. He is the lastborn of two siblings who sadly lost both of their parents when they were young. The boys were taken to live with their grandmother and were doing well until the end of 2024 when she passed away. Now they are staying with their aunt and her husband. The couple is doing their best to take care of them but it is a challenge to keep up with their day to day needs as well as their school fees. With a hand to hold, we believe Emmanuel can overcome the challenges he faces and become an agent of positive change in his community and family.
About Emmanuel's Home: Makueni
Makueni County is a part of Southeastern Kenya generally known as Ukambani. The climate is usually hot and dry making farming a challenge and food supplies short. The main diet in these areas is corn products, beans, some fruits and green vegetables such as kale when the weather permits. The main language spoken is Kikamba and the primary religion is Christianity though there is still much traditional superstition and a recent influx of Islam.
