AdminIn Kameruka, 12-year-old Fatuma lost both parents and was left to care for her younger siblings. Through KIR’s orphan support program, she received monthly food packages, school sponsorship, and psychosocial care. Today, she’s thriving in school and dreams of becoming a nurse.
Widows like Mariam, once isolated and struggling, now participate in skills training and receive household essentials. These interventions don’t just provide relief—they restore dignity and rebuild futures.
“We believe in empowering and equipping local leaders. We help people who are helping people.”
As the number of vulnerable children and widows grows, so does the need for consistent support. For a charity like KIR, the challenge is balancing compassion with capacity. Is it most important that every orphan receives full sponsorship? Can you streamline psychosocial services and still offer meaningful care? Is the emotional healing of a widow more valuable than the number of beneficiaries served?
