Dan’s mother died while he was still at primary school.
With
no-one to look after him, his aunt Gladys looked after him while he was in high
school and our partners Education for Life provided him with accommodation when
he finished school in 2015.
His grades were not high, and he survived by doing odd jobs.
His talent for music meant that he became the regular keyboard player at church,
but of course that couldn’t earn him a living!
Dan met us during our trustees visit in February, explaining
how he needed a skill to enable him to get a decent job.
After some discussion,
we agreed to fund a course for him to train as a construction machinery operator
which should enable him to get a job in Kenya’s booming construction industry
when he qualifies.
