Orphans and vulnerable children project

WE CURRENTLY LOOK LOOK FOR GODPARENTS FOR 4 KIDS - CLICK HERE

Thank you for your interest in the MEF orphans project. This is a project which helps orphans and vulnerable children.

The situation of orphans has been compounded by the escalating death from the pandemic AIDS. The effect of the disease is beyond measure in terms of economic impact hence reducing the rights to education of these children.

Our mission is to ensure continuous education for these children and expand the possibility for brighter future for them.

Your financial contribution will help alleviate the suffering of these most deserving children. With your help, we can extricate these children from their predicaments and change their lives forever. As we provide food, education, hope and joy, our labour shall not be in vain.

Through generous donation we are able to provide these children with food to eat and a school to attend.

My hope is you will join us and help these children have a better chance in life. Education is the key to break the cycle of poverty.

Thanks a lot and God bless you.

Joyce M. Illi, President MEF

Jacob Muthuvi, one of the children supported by MEF was asked this question: “How has MEF changed your life?” Please, read his response:

MEF has really changed my life. My relatives who I used to live with never managed to pay for all my needs. However, when MEF took me and I came to Mwingi Eastview Academy, my concentration was only on my education. This is the most important thing I value in my life at the moment. My life since then is very comfortable and I am feeling as if I am in my home and my parents. My teachers like me very much. We are given spiritual guidance, a balanced diet and also somewhere to sleep.

I am very smart and bright boy who always hold the first position in my class. My great desire for now is to pass well KCPE (Kenya Certificate of Primary Education), go to High school, University and continue further. Finally, I am hopping to be a great person in future. I also have that feeling that one day I will help orphans just as have been helped. God bless all of those good people that are concerned about my life.
