sponsor a child

Habari (hello), my name is Mitchell

  • location

    Kenya

  • 7 yrs. old

    06-01-2016

Entered the Program: April 2022

Mitchell lives with her mother and little sister in a one-room rented house made of wood with a dirt floor. They do not have access to electricity and they borrow water from their neighbors. They have an outdoor kitchen and use firewood for cooking and they share a communal pit latrine that is in poor condition.

Mitchell and her sister used to live with their grandmother after their parents were unable to care for them. Their father’s alcohol addiction and abuse of their mother led to their ultimate separation, and through the Women's Empowerment program at Mama Beth, their mother has been encouraged and assisted to care for and support her children. She has great financial need and Mama Beth's has given her a job to help make ends meet.
