He’s been abandoned right after he was born, far from the place that was supposed to be his home. Fortunately, the alertness and care of the people around him saved him from a tragic fate. When his mother returned to the village alone, without her newborn child, her neighbors immediately noticed something was wrong. A coordinated search effort was successful – Moses was found and immediately taken to the nearest hospital, where he received essential medical care. After his health was stabilized, the boy was brought to Kasisi. Here, in a place that is like a true HOME for many children, we’re doing everything we can to make sure that Moses feels safe. Our goal is for him to understand that despite his difficult beginnings, the world is full of people ready to embrace and support him – even if sometimes it can only be from a distance.
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.
