Yvonne’s story is one of life intertwined with tragic events but also unexpected moments of hope. She was brought to Kasisi at just one year old by an organization working with sex workers. Her mother has died, but from time to time, Yvonne did experience glimpses of family warmth. In one of those magical moments, her family emerged from the past, wanting to bring her into their home. However, for reasons unknown, they changed their minds. Currently, she studies at a boarding school and returns to Kasisi during holidays, always eager to help with various tasks. Her great passion and love is dance.
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.
