Sunshine turned my life around

Samuel Kamau is on a safari from the streets to the national parks of Kenya. “I came to the Sunshine Centre from the streets in 2012,” Samuel told us. “Sunshine turned my life around!”

We had travelled through the traffic jams of Nairobi to catch up with Samuel who is in his first year of his Tourism Management course at the Technical University of Kenya.

When he lived on the streets, the idea of going to college was a distant dream. But, with the help of our Sunshine Centre, he is now on a safari to a new life.

As project director Rev Simon hands over a laptop to help his studies, Samuel tells us about his course: “We have been studying the geography of east Africa, and what motivates tourists to come to Kenya. I have even been to Amboseli National Park and seen elephants and Mt Kilimanjaro."
