City, quarter: Nairobi Mathare
State: Kenya
Mother: Elizabeth Khadija, birth 1989, house wife

Description of the situation: Graphian is from the family of 3 children. She has sister Griffith (2004) and brother Stephen (2014). Her father is teacher and mother is a house wife. Family income is around 5.000 KES/ 50 EUR per month. They live in one room semi – permanent house (from iron sheet and timber) which is rented (3,000 KSH/30 Eur per month). They have electricity in the house and get water from the tap. Mother cooks on paraffin stove. Graphian is healthy girl who loves playing football and hide and seek game. In 2019 she is already in class 3 at the Primary School. Due to the little income that is family earning, it is hard to meet basic family needs and paying school fees has become a big problem. That is why we decided to put her into our program that she does not have to leave the school. Graphian needs support of 2.400 CZK/100 EUR per term.
