Description of the situation: Charles was born in April of 2017. Charles is a child out of wedlock and currently lives with his mother at his grandmother's home. His mother is still a student, and his grandmother is a housewife. They all live in a semi-permanent home that has three rooms. They have solar electricity and use firewood for cooking. They receive their water from a borehole. Healthwise, Charles struggles with some ear problems, but otherwise is doing well. Charles’s hobbies include football, playing games, and reading. He likes nature. In 2023 Charles is in nursery school at the Island of Hope Humanist School. His adoption costs are 2.400 CZK/ 100 EUR per school term (7.200 CZK/ 300 EUR per year). Will you help his mother send him to school so they can both receive a proper education?

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.
