Tapiwa 11 y/o

19
Birthday: 02.05.2013
With Kasisi since: 17.10.2014

Despite a tragic start in life, Tapiwa finds strength in her inner determination. She was abandoned by her mother, a traumatic experience for any child, and suffers from partial paralysis on the right side of her body. However, she refuses to let that define her life. When social services sent her to Kasisi, it was not just a change of environment but also an opportunity for a new way of seeing the world. Tapiwa is a living example that physical obstacles can be overcome with the right attitude and support from others. Although she can only use one functional hand, Tapiwa excels in managing her daily tasks. She does not seek pity or special treatment. Even though her daily rehabilitation sessions have yet to bring significant improvement, she consistently demonstrates that true strength comes from within her heart, not just her physical capabilities.

Urgent help needed

Passport to the Future – Donate a School Starter Kit

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.
