Biography

Gift is a vibrant  joyful boy who is in grade 1 at Masongaleni Primary School. Following the tragic passing of his father in 2020,his family stability was deeply shaken.His mother was left with the sole ,overwhelming responsibility of raising him alongside his two siblings .His mother takes manual and odd labor jobs to survive.However,these casual employment opportunities are highly unstable and become incredibly scarce outside rainy season,leaving the household with an unpredictable income.Consequently,Gift faces the painful challenge of frequently missing classes and being sent home due to unpaid school fees and lack of essential learning materials.With stable support,this boy's potential will be realized, and he will become what God wants him to be. May the lord lead you as you pray about him.

About Gift'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.
