Bahati - Uzima wa Watoto - Child Rescue Mission

In Bahati (a massive slum area within Kenya's largest city), the Missionary Sisters have established a child rescue mission in an effort to help save the lives of these little ones before more of them die. "The boys and girls here are poorer than anyone could possibly imagine," Sr. Jane Ann (director of the shelter) explains. "Many of the children were found at the city dump -- digging for something to eat. Once we see them there, our Sisters tell the children to come here. Once they are here, we offer them a hot meal as well as provide them medical care if they are in need."

"We have also set up a school here in Bahati," she continues. "Our hope is to educate the children and help them develop skills so that as they grow older, they will have some trade that will help them find employment."

For a monthy donation of $38.00 you can sponsor either of the children below. Please contact us using the email below, and let us know which child you would like to sponsor.

	Name: Kelvin
	Age: 11
	School: St. Agnes in Kerugoya.
	History: Kelvin is in Class Four. His mother passed away immediately after giving birth. Kelvin was left in the hands of his eighty year old grandmother who has no income to support him. Kelvin is HIV positive and taking medication. The grandmother depends on the charity of others to support Kelvin. He may need to be placed in our Children's Home Centre for better care. $38 per month would give Kelvin security in his schooling, while helping the Sisters provide his medications long term.
