City, quarter: Kisumu Kakoth
State: Kenya
Mother: Mercy Atieno Onyango, birth 1985, peasant farmer
Father: Samuel Onyango Ochola, birth 1975, peasant farmer
Description of the situation: Emmanuel is from the family of five children. He has sisters Joan (2002), Dorothy (2004) and brothers Chalton (2006) and Briton (2016). His parents work on other people’s farm to sustain their family lives. Family income is only around 3.000 KES/ 30 EUR per month. They live in a two – room mud house which belongs to them. They use firewood for cooking and they get water from borehole. Emmanuel is healthy and he is doing well. He likes playing football and singing. In 2018 he is already in last year of Nursery School. Due to the little income, it is hard to meet all basic family needs and paying school fees for all kids is a really big problem. That is why we decided to put him into our programme that he could get the opportunity to go regularly to the school. Emmanuel needs support of 2.400 CZK/100 EUR per term.

The project of remote support „Adoptions of African children“ mediates an access to education for poor Kenyan children without pulling them out of their natural environment and community. This project has been running since 2002 and has helped more than 3500 children. School fees at primary school are CZK 7200 (€300) / year, and at secondary school, college and orphanage are CZK 16800 (€660). The payment can also be broken down into multiple instalments.
