Description of the situation: Brackstone has two older siblings: Felix Otieno (born 2010), Meroline Akinyi (2014, in adoption ID 53292). Father who is the breadwinner is now taking care of his wife/mother of kids who has been in hosipital since the month of August 2025. The mother is suffering from cancer of soft tissues and seriously needs operation/surgery and the father has not managed to raise money for his wife to be operated. Now the children lives in the house alone and they are forced to go fishing in the night and in the morning goes to school. Sometimes they go fishing and when they don’t get food, they go to school with empty stomach. They live in a one roomed mud house which belongs to the family. They use firewood/charcoal for cooking, solar for lighting and they get water from lake. Brackstone likes playing football. In school he likes Mathematics and Kiswahili. He would like to be a doctor after school. Due to a very bad family situation he was admitted to orphanage in our community centre Island of Hope and in 2026 he should start attending class 3 at primary school here. He needs support of 1.500 CZK/62,50 EUR/month (18.000 CZK/750 EUR/year).

This project has been running since 2002 and has helped more than 3 500 children. School fees at primary school are CZK 8,400 (€ 360) / year, and at secondary school, college and orphanage are CZK 18,000 (€ 750). The payment can also be broken down into multiple instalments.
