Blessing has spent most of her life at Kasisi. She first came to us as an infant after her mother passed away. When she turned two, her grandmother took her home, providing her with much love and support. However, when her health declined, she asked us to care for Blessing once again. The grandmother fought a long battle with a cruel illness, which she eventually overcame. As soon as she felt strong enough, she visited us to discuss Blessing’s future. Everyone agreed that Blessing would live with her grandma, but as long as she continues her education, she will receive support through the “Adoptions from the Heart” program. Blessing dreams of becoming a teacher.
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.
