Description of the situation: William was born in 2004 and has five siblings. The oldest being Michael (2003), Elijah (2006), Marry (2008), Magret (2015) and Wilson (2013). Their parents split up. Wilson, Marry and Margrey stay with mother. Elijah was taken in by their aunt. Michael and William decided to stay with their father and help him because he suffers from sickling and cannot work. Due to this they depend most of the time on the help of their neighbours. The older brother was forced to drop out of school to drop out of school to involve in fishing to care for William and the father. The family of three live in a mud house that has two rooms. They use firewood for cooking and receive water from the lake nearby. For lighting they use solar powered lights. This home is falling apart due to the condition it is in. Aside from all the problems at home, William enjoys going to school. His favourite subjects are science, english and mathematics. He hopes to become a pilot one day. Some of his hobbies include playing football and reading. From May 2022 William was in the orphanage and in 2024 he should join Form 2 at Island of Hope Humanist Secondary school. Unfortunately he is not having an adoptive parent. He needs support of 5.600 CZK/ 220 EUR per school term (16.800 CZK/ 660 EUR per year). Will you help him to get a good 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.
