Goal
Through the support of donations like yours, Upendo children have been relocated upcountry in Kenya where they are safe to play, learn, and thrive! Upendo is a small locally run community-based organization in Kakamega, Kenya. Set up as a safe haven for abused, abandoned, and orphaned children, Upendo gives the love and care only a true mother can provide to children who have nowhere else to go. Upendo also supports struggling families, sponsoring vulnerable children in the nearby community to reside and thrive in their families.
Due to the grassroots nature of Upendo, the centre often struggles to provide the children with all the medical services, nutrition, school fees, and shelter they need with the limited resources they have. Currently the centre is self-funded through the director generating income via tailoring, local craft / jewelry sales, community health work, among others.
These vulnerable children need our support, and now!
With only $15 you can feed a child for a week, or $50 to support a child's school fees for one term or $100 to fund the monthly medical costs for one HIV+ child. You can provide any dollar amount, and indicate how you would like to support the centre - leave a comment in the notes!
Please consider providing anything you can, it will truly help our beloved Upendo children with the resources they need to reach their full potential!
