When Andrew came to Kasisi, he was just over two years old. From the very beginning, he was very quiet. This is understandable, as he spent the first years of his life in solitude. His mother regularly left him alone at home from the day he was born, with no care at all. No one responded to his cries and pleas, so he simply stopped calling out. Fortunately, caring people stepped in and reported the situation to social services. Andrew was taken from his biological mother and Kasisi became his home. Here, where safety, attention, and love are the norm, Andrew feels happy. He is growing up in an environment filled with love and understanding.
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.
