My story

My name is Riziki and am 16 years old. I come from a family of 4 boys and 5 girls. My father is serving a life jail term in prison, and my mother is doing casual jobs in the village to get us food. I go to school at Blessed Generation Primary school and i am in grade 4. I am happy at school because we are doing many practicals that have improved my skills. I also get breakfast and lunch Which i never had before.

Why Riziki needs our help

Riziki need our help because she comes from a very destitute family. Her mother,being unskilled, does manual job, which most of time is not available to cater for her children. Due to low income, Riziki and his sibling were out of school. Most cases they went without food and when she managed to secure a job she could only afford 1 meal a day. For clothing, they depended on well wishers. After assessing the situation at home. Blessed Generation enrolled Riziki in our school where we cater for all of her education need including full school uniform. We also provide food after every two weeks to her family and medical when need arise.

Riziki 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.
