At least one of our teenage residents usually accompanies a Sister on shopping trips. This is a way to become familiar with the day to day rituals of adult life and living on a budget. That is not to say this is an entirely bland activity, for once in a while the young person gets a chance to pick something out for themselves. And what is it that teenage girls always want more of? Clothes, of course!
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.
