Caring Hearts and Hands of Hope Inc

Pauline (15), the girl in blue jean jacket, is an orphan.
When her parents died, she was left under the care of poor grandparents. They too died and left her with a maternal aunt. In 2009 she sat for the national 8thgrade exam and passed but lacked the minimum $500 tuition and fees to join high school. The solution was to have her repeat 8th grade. Because primary school education is free, the hope was that she would spend a few more years before she is big enough to get married. In 2010 she passed again and without help from a well-wisher, she was again destined to be in the 8th
grade in 2011.
Dominic (18), the boy on my left, visually impaired, started
school at the age of 10. His poverty level is so devastating that the school had to adopt him. He became the first blind student from our school to pass and secure admission at a prestigious school for the blind. Misery spares no one.

Yet if someone makes a small sacrifice of $500/year, a
destitute girl or a boy has hope of becoming a teacher, a medical doctor, engineer, police, public leader, accountant or preacher to name a few opportunities for Kenyan students who are privileged to attend high school.
