Description of the situation: Trizah was born in 2009 and has an older brother Trevy (2005). Her mother ran away from the family because her husband was very violent and left the children with their grandmother. The grandmother is a widow and sells grain to support the family. However, her income is very low, at about Ksh 600/month (€6). The family lives in a mud house with two rooms. They use charcoal and wood for cooking and get water from a nearby lake. They use kerosene lamps for lighting. The problem is that the abusive father lives in the house with them. Trizah in early 2024 could no longer stand the situation and ran away from home to look for her mother, unfortunately she found out that she had already died. Desperate, she therefore came to our community centre asking to stay at the orphanage. She is very afraid of her dad and is not safe where he is. The grandmother confirmed that it is not in her power to protect the girl. Brother Trevy goes to a public high school. Years ago, his father mutilated him by burning both his hands. The father was in prison for that for several years, but now he is back and unfortunately continues his horrible behavior. Trizah is in the 8th grade at Hope Island Primary School. She needs support of 1.400 CZK/55 EUR/month (16.800 CZK/660 EUR/year). Trizah's hobbies include dancing, singing and football.

The project of remote support „Adoptions of African children“ mediates an access to education for poor Kenyan children without pulling them out of their natural environment and community. This project has been running since 2002 and has helped more than 3500 children. School fees at primary school are CZK 7200 (€300) / year, and at secondary school, college and orphanage are CZK 16800 (€660). The payment can also be broken down into multiple instalments.
