When Bwalya came to Kasisi, he was just a few months old. His mother decided that he would be raised in an orphanage, simply saying that she didn’t want him. Despite this difficult start in life, Bwalya is cheerful and full of joy. He gives a lot of love to those around him. His story is an example that even in the toughest situations, hope and happiness can be found.
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.
