Furaha Orphanage, Kilifi (Kenya)
The orphanage is run by a lady named Esther, who has been taking care of 24 orphans (in addition to her five daughters) with her own scarce resources for the past year.
She has very little means, but is an extremely dynamic and proactive woman, with high ambitions for the children she takes care of.
I have been spending much of the last three weeks visiting her orphanage (which is essentially her own plot of land, with a mud hut and one permanent structure which serves both as a dormitory and nursery school for the children).
There is a whole list of things that the orphanage needs urgently, but for now, I thought it would be best to share these with you through pictures...
If you would like to donate to the orphanage, any contribution would be extremely valuable, and any sum of money will go extremely far! We are currently in the process of creating a bank account for the orphanage, and hope that it will be open very soon... Will make sure you to keep you updated!
