Amanda is a child of joy. Her smile never fades. She loves people, delights in hugs, a gentle touch on her face, or just holding hands. If she could break free from her ailing body, she’d probably be jumping, dancing, singing loudly, running through meadows, picking flowers, chatting with birds, and hugging every person she meets—she’s our own Anne of Green Gables. However, cerebral palsy puts harsh limitations on her. Only regular rehabilitation eases her discomfort slightly. Both of her parents have passed away, making Kasisi her only family.
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.
