November 2005

We are now in November 2005. The situation has changed a lot. We moved from Nairobi to Thika in July 2004. Then we once more moved from Thika to Mtwapa nearby Mombasa. The last time we moved was in April 2005 from Mtwapa to North Mtwapa to a a bigger house which can accomodate more children and has it owns compound. Right now we are settled there till we will be able to buy a plot and built our own home.

We do have at this moment 15 orphans in our care. 2 previous streetchildren are living in Nairobi on their own and are financially supported by our NGO. James is 18 learning to become a safari cook and Charles also 18 is learning how to drive and want to become a safari driver and mechanic. James is assisting already during the safaris.

We have 13 orphans living in the home age 6 months till 15 years old. Johnons is 15, Maxwell 11, Salomé is 11, Selina is 8, Kipu is 6 ( aids child ) , Maurice is 7, Dennis is 7, Sylvester is 4, Gregory is 4 ( aids child)  ,Savannah ( aids child) will be 3 soon, Moses ( aids child ) is 2 and half, Beatrice is 2 and Faith ( aids child )  is about 6 months. Lydia a older orphan of 23 years is also living with us.

In the staff we have Edward the care taker. Doing his job very well and coming along with the volunteers and children in a perfect manner. Humprey is our cook having the tough job to cook for all the children, staff and volunteers. Not always easy cause the volunteers sometimes are giving him a hard job when they complain about to salty, not salty enough, to spicy, to this or that. Many volunteers with different tastes so imagine... His wife Myriam a wonderfull kind joyfull lady assisting to raise the children in a Kenyan way. taking good care about the youngest children.

The volunteers : mostly a joy sometimes a burden. But with most volunteers we had a great time and we are very gratefull that they came and assisted us with taking care about the children and keeping the house clean... The children love the volunteers but if there is tension in the house because of the volunteers then the children are behaving different.

Our goal; to give our children love and attention, good education, taking them for excursions, to built our own orphanage where we can host about 50 children. Preparing them for a independent life.

Change the world make it a better place for you and for me ...and the children of Kenya
