Mother: Jocinter Atieno Opiyo, birth 1984, sells fish

Description of the situation: Victor was born in February of 2019. Victor has three older siblings, Fidel (2008), Raul (2010), and Rebecca (2013) Their father passed, so their mother sells fish to make enough to support her family. With the struggles of providing for four children, the children were taken by their grandmother who also sells fish for a living. They live in a semi-permanent home that has four rooms. The family’s net income is 5,500 KSH (55 EUR) per month. They use firewood and charcoal for cooking and get their water from the lake. For lighting around the home, they use solar powered lights. Healthwise, Tony is doing well except for the occasional malaria. Some of Tony’s interests are reading and playing soccer. Tony will attend kindergarten in the Island of Hope’s project in the 2022 school year. His adoption costs are 2.400 CZK/ 100 EUR per school term (7.200 CZK/ 300 EUR per year). Will you help him get an education he deserves?
