Description of the situation: Celestine comes from a polygamous family where her mother is the last wife of the father. In their house, she is the last born amongst five children (Simon born 2000, Synancy born 2003, Lidky born 2008 and Darline born 2012). In the other house there are also seven children. The father is a security guard whose earning is little and cannot provide the family with the basic needs in life: their month income is 7,000 KES (about 70 Eur). The family is doing well at present. The family lives in three rooms in the mud house which belongs them. They take water from the lake and cook on fire (using charcoal). They use koresene lamp or little solar panel for lighting. Celestine likes playing football. She is doing well healthwise at the moment. From 2023, the girl attends a primary school class at our community center Island of Hope Humanist School.

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.

Section of detailed information provides an overview of how this projects works. In case you have already chosen a child from our database, you can also find here all the steps to be taken in order to adopt a child remotely.

You can also provide the adoptive children by health insurance, that covers any medical treatment the child needs during 1 year.

Adoption Friend Club forms an integral part of this project, and enables to support education of Kenyan children by one-time contribution anytime during the year.

In case you already are an “adoptive parent”, here you will find complementary information and references for adoptive parents about the whole adoption process.

Photo-gallery and videos document promotional events of this project and provide coverage from trips to Kenya, including greetings and messages from children, handing over of presents and give overview of individual schools and their facilities.
