Description of the situation: JJames the oldest in the family of three children. He has sister Christine (2013) and brother Moses (2014). The father died and the mother is single and works as a house maid. Family income is around 2.500 KES/ 25 EUR per month. The family lives with grandmother´s mud house. They use fire wood for cooking, kerosene lamp for lighting and they get water from the stream. James is healthy and he is doing well. In 2018 James is already in class 3 at Primary School.. Due to the little income that is their mother earning, it is hard to meet basic family needs and pay school fees. That is why we decided to put him into our programme to give him opportunity to go regularly to school. He needs support of 2.400 CZK/100 EUR per term.
