sponsor a child

Habari (hello), my name is Geoffrey

  • location

    Kenya

  • 8 yrs. old

    11-22-2015

Entered the program: October 2019

Geoffrey lives with his mother, sister and two brothers in a one-room sheet metal house, which they rent. They have one bed, which is shared by him, his sister and his mother; his two brothers sleep on the floor. The family gets water from a borehole and the outdoor bathroom facility is in bad condition.                           

Geoffrey’s father abandoned the family, leaving all the responsibility to his mother. She works as a fruit vendor but it is very hard for her to pay rent and supply all of her children’s needs. The children have to wear torn clothes and shoes and often do not go to school due to lack of school fees.                                             

Geoffrey's sister, Tabitha, is also in the Mama Beth program.
