Small JOY (4 yrs old) still needs a sponsor :-)

Small Joy (we call her like that because our daughter is also named Joy), is part of our Hope Centre program. She literally grew up before us and is like a granddaughter to us. She recently joined the same school, Lerwa School of Excellence, where most of our Hope Centre kids go. It's a great school and we also get quite a bit of discount due to the fact that we work with needy children.  Here are a few adorable photos of this little sweetheart.

Two news boys have joined YASHA Hope Centre, John & Felix ...

Towards the end of 2014, we regularly bumped into two boys in Nakuru streets, John & Felix. They both have been in school before, but due to John's mother who just can't keep up with her responsibilities financially and Felix's drunkard farther, they both decided to rather spend their days on the street where they at least have a chance that somebody might give them food or money for food.

We started a relationship with them, and very soon learn that they both desire to go back to school. We then visited John's mother, a lady with numerous other kids who's trying her level best to survive with very little recourses.

F.l.t.r. Peter (a friend who operates as a hawker in Nakuru and who helped us a lot whenever we
needed to get hold of the boys), Felix, John, John's mother, Teacher Damaris and Wilco.
 In January 2015 John and Felix joined Lerwa Centre of Excellence, a school attended by some of our other Hope Centre kids.

This was made possible by the donations of caring friends. Even a small amount of money can make a difference. We are grateful.
