New Sponsors!

This week many people have joined us through child sponsorship to help us rescue children. We are grateful for each commitment. One of the newest children in our child sponsorship program is Dorcas. While Dorcas does not live in a Kulea home, we are helping her aunt care for her by providing school fees and additional funds for medical care and food. Why? Here is her story.

 DORCAS

DATE OF BIRTH: December 23, 2006

My name is Dorcas and I am 6 years old. I live with Aunt Joyce and two cousins, Michele and Mercy in Likoni, Kenya. I grew up in western Kenya where my father was killed when I was small. My mother then left me with my grandmother, but never returned for me. I was so unhappy with my grandmother, because most of the time, we went without food. In the evenings she gave us Busaa, homemade alcohol, to help us forget our hunger. There was no money for school fees so I stayed  home everyday. Then one day Aunt Joyce came, saw my situation and decided to take care of me.  We went nearby to stay with our uncle, but he got tired of caring for us and angrily told us to leave his house. Aunt Joyce brought us from western Kenya all the way to Mombasa, the east coast. We came to Manna Bible Church and were introduced to Kulea. Since then I have been attending Hilltop Preschool in Likoni. I am in Kindergarten and eating three times everyday! Sometimes I wonder where my mother went, but Aunt Joyce says not to worry, because God is taking care of me. Imagine! Kulea has even bought me a mattress which I have never had before. Because of all this, I know God loves me and I thank Him very much for helping us through Kulea.
