Emily graduates as a nurse

Emily was one of the original group of 12 orphaned and abandoned children we started to care for at our newly built Tumaini Children's Home in 2004. She thrived under the care of 'mum and dad' Charles and Mary, did well at school and finished her degree course in 2016. The top photos were taken at her graduation ceremony at the university in Nairobi.

Robert Masinde (bottom left) comes from a very poor family and was struggling to earn a living as a washing up assistant at a hotel in Naivasha. We are delighted we have been able to help him start to train as an electrical installer at the Naivasha Technical Training Institute where he started in January.

Naomi (bottom right) is also one of our original group of 12 orphaned and abandoned children. She is training in hotel and restaurant management. The photo shows her checking out the comfort of one of the beds at La Belle Hotel where she is working for 3 months as part of her course.
