Description of the situation: Limpia is the last born in the family of three children (siblings Vurrel 2007 and Glovian 2009), the father who was the family’s breadwinner died leaving the children with their mother to provide them with the basic needs in life. The mother after the death of the husband (Limpia’s father) ran away from home leaving the children with no one to take care of. This is why Limpia and Glovian were taken by their Aunt while Vurrel was taken by her grandmother. The Aunt who sells SimSim (typical food) has also her two own children to feed and also take to school but the income she gets is very little. Family´s average is 300 KES per month – about 3 EUR. The family (which has 6 members altogether) lives in their own 2-roomed mud house. They get water from the river, use firewood for cooking and kerosene lump for lighting Limpia is doing well except sometimes she has problem with her ears, aunt and the husband are taking ARV drugs and Glovian also has problem with her leg when she walks long distance. In 2020, Limpia will be in 2nd class in primary school. Limpia likes Mathematics, Social studies and Science. She would like to be a doctor at the end of her studies. She also likes playing with the ball and jumping with ropes. Limpia will join the orphanage in our community centre Island of Hope since January 2020. Adoption of this child costs 16.800 CZK/ 660 EUR per year (the amount covers school fees, accommodation, food and governess in an orphanage as well).
