Biography

Victoria is a friendly and hardworking young woman. She is currently in 10th grade at a local Secondary school where she is an above average student. Sadly Victoria's parents did not have the opportunity to get a good education and have therefore struggled to get work. Because they also live in a dry area with limited rainfall, they struggle to take care of their four children plus two others whom they had to take in. Victoria is disciplined, loves the Lord and shows a lot of potential. We believe with a hand to hold, she can overcome the challenges she faces and become a woman of God who is an asset to her generation. Would you be willing to walk with her? 

About Victoria'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.
