Dear Partner,
Today, we write reintroduce you to one of our students in the education and mentorship program who shares the impact of growing up in a residential care.
She states that living in children’s home has its shares of highs and low. Mostly it has been filled with struggles and hardships and despite the fact that she scored very well in primary, it was almost difficult for her to continue her education, this weighed heavily on her young shoulders, untill our team heard about her predicament.
Meet Nuru David, the 17 year old lives in residential care- Chembe Joyous Children’s Home in Kilifi County and is a beneficiary of our Habiballahi Director’s Education and Mentorship fund a program initiated and run by our Founder and Lead Director Ms. Habiba C N Mohamed who is passionate about protecting the rights of women and girls, she is vocal about women empowerment and does her bit by investing and creating a better future for bright yet needy girls to escape the cycle of poverty through education.
