John came to Kasisi with his sister. The boy is an albino. Physical attacks on people with albinism, especially women and children, are still a big problem in many African countries. Therefore, for the child’s safety, we cannot show his face. Here at the home in Kasisi, the priority is his welfare and safety. We want to do everything we can to make sure that, in the loving arms of the sisters and aunties, he will forget the threat as soon as possible.
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.
