DECEMBER, 2022 CHRISTMAS PARTY DISTRIBUTION

Christmas came early to our brothers and sisters in Kenya and once again everything was done to tradition just like the pre pandemic years. Every child received new clothes, shoes as well as extra food and toiletries supplies. Among other special gifts were a cow, goat and chicken for select families.

To top it all off, everyone was treated to an end year feast with distinguished Kenyan delicacies served including masala rice, chapatti, deep fried chicken, corn bread and so much more. Further the congregation was filled with joy of getting together in celebration of the end of an eventful yet successful year.  

Christmas means so much to many children and adults alike across the globe and as witnessed, Santa managed once again to put a smile on every child's face courtesy of your generous thoughtful giving. It is a season of neighborliness and indeed you all set the bar so high. Happy Christmas!

APRIL 23, 2022 DISTRIBUTION

It’s back to school for Students in Kenya and our sponsored children are well equipped with the necessities to face the learning period ahead of them. Each student received the required stationery and text books as well as their regular supply of food and toiletries.

With all their school fees paid fully up front, all our sponsored children will have all the time to focus on their studies without distractions. Through Education we seek to harness our children’s chances at a better tomorrow as well as achieve a ripple effect of change throughout the community through these precious ambassadors.

We wish them all the best in their pursuit of education.

CHRISTMAS 2021 PORTRAITS IN NEW CLOTHES

Joy and abundance filled the air this Christmas season at our resource center in Kenya as Give Amore spread love through gifts, teaching and celebration of the eminent birth of our savior Jesus Christ. Our children had the time of their life, some indulging in their favorite meals and beverages, something that isn’t as common in their homes and daily routines. Topping the list of gifts this time and every other year was new clothes for all our sponsored children, a tradition so popular in the African culture, as well as extra food and toiletries.

2021 JANUARY BACK TO SCHOOL GIFTS

With the dawn of the New Year, it is back to school for all learners in Kenya and despite the raging pandemic world over, the government has carefully crafted a return to school plan to help protect the students against Covid 19 both while at home and school.

Our sponsored children are excited to resume learning after months of staying home due to the global pandemic that led to all schools closing indefinitely. Also given that Kenya has no homeschooling plan in its education system, there is no way she could have kept up with her syllabus.

Armed with books, stationery, full school uniform, and more, students are ecstatic and eager to go back to school and see their peers.

Due to Corona virus related restrictions, our usual congregation at the Give Amore center was replaced with our team transporting supplies to the homes of the beneficiaries for our April Distribution.

In addition to the food and toiletries we typically issue, this time there was an augmentation of hand washing stations, extra food and soap to supplement their provisions during these lean moments and help curb the spread of the virus in case of an outbreak in the remote rural areas.

Christa and Heather, along with the entire Give Amore team, visited the well at the home of Yvonne. We were happy to find the well running very well and the community free of many diseases that once plagued them from the lack of clean water in their community. We learned the well previously dried up, but the community came together to raise funds and had the well deepened. The village members wished to share how much the well is really helping their community.

2017 update

Yvonne is a total orphan and was tested HIV positive that was acquired from birth.

She is in 6th grade for the 2017 school year at Cornerstone Mission School. She lives with her aunt Dorcus Bulimo who does small Business for a living.

Despite her health condition, Yvonne is a happy child and has a knack for games and running errands. Her aunt does her best to keep her on her meds and we believe we will see more and more of her around for as long as it takes.

2015 update

Yvonne is a teacher in the making. Her friendly smile endears her to many and acts as her connection tool.

“I would like to end up a teacher of English…” a confirmation of her love for English both as a subject and a language.

She further gave a detailed sentiment on her problems at home naming lack of enough food, textbooks, clothing and bedding at the top of her list.

Lastly, “I love being around people and you just the right people I love being around,” she concludes in her native language.
