Description of the situation: Steven lives with his parents and siblings Trivia (2012) and Francis (2015). The mother is housewife and father is fisherman. Family has only around 600 KES/6 EUR per month. The family lives in two room mud house which belongs to them. They use firewood for cooking, paraffin lamp for lighting and they get water from the lake. Steven is healthy boy. He likes playing football. In 2020 he should start to attend kindergarten. 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 him into our program that he could go to school. Steven needs support of 2,400 CZK/100 EUR per term.
