My story

My name is Emmanuel, and am 15 years old. I come from a family of seven children three girls and four boys. All my sisters and brothers are not educated because they dropped out of school at early ages. I stay with my father and mother and my sisters who also came back after they all separated from their husbands. My father is mentally ill and he becomes very violent when he has not taken medicine. My mother cannot do heavy duties depends on my sisters who do casual jobs. I also had dropped out of school and used to take care of my neighbors goats.I am able to read,speak and write in english.

Emmanuel is supported by impact partner Blessed Generation

Blessed Generation is a Kenya-based Non Governmental Organization (NGO) registered as a Charitable Children's Institution. From Kenya she gives children in need a chance for a good future. Education plays an important role in our help. It is the key to the future. Blessed Generation offers children primary and further education and, where possible, supports vocational or university education. We consciously choose not to stop supporting after primary school. Further education and thorough social emotional guidance by our qualified social workers significantly increases the possibilities of a vulnerable child and reduces risks such as crime, radicalisation and teenage pregnancies.
