Description of the situation: Leaky was born in 2004. He comes from a polygamist family where his father has three wives. Unfortunalety the father has ran away from the reponsibility and left every wife to care for her children. Leaky's mother is a peasant farmer and it is very hard for her to take care of Leaky and his 5 siblings (Maselas, Collins, Molenter, Bob and Frankline). Leaky was born as the third child. The family lives in a two room mud house, they get water from the river, use firewood for cooking and solar for lighting. Leaky is doing well at the moment. He really likes football and soccer. In school he likes Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics. When he finishes his studies he would like to be a doctor. In 2024, he should be attending grade 4 at Island of Hope Humanist Mixed Boarding School. He needs support of 1.400 CZK/55 EUR/month (16.800 CZK/660 EUR/year).

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.
