Touch a Family
Through the generous support of our sponsors and donors, we have been able to reach out to families of our sponsored children and people living in Kibera. God has worked tremendously through this program and brought hope to homes that were in despair. The smiles that we see in faces of these families once we reach out with our food parcels are usually amazing. The kids are the once who express it even better by laughing and holding these food parcels. It always touches our hearts to know that we are creating an impact in someone’s life and bringing joy to a particular family.


We not only give out the food parcels but this always creates a platform for us to also share the love of God to these families in which Christ died for their sins. We get families giving their lives to Jesus through our visits too. There is a family that we recently visited who knew nothing about Jesus but through our generous support they got interested to know who is this we serve that gives us the joy of sharing. We got a chance to share His word and they gave their lives to Jesus.
One of the most touching stories from this program that we have had in the course of this year is from a family that saw the food parcel and broke down in tears. They had gone for some days without food and said that we were heaven sent. The gratitude that we received from them was beyond our imagination. The most recent family we visited was of a young girl who had just given birth and had nothing to eat. The fact that she was breastfeeding made things even harder for her. On visiting, she was very happy and really thanked us because she finally got something that would take her for at least two weeks or so.

These are some of the stories that keep us going as an organization. The fact that we are creating an impact in the society gives us the zeal to keep working. We thank all the donors for making such programs successful. You may not be here physically to witness the impact but we can truly testify that you are a blessing. May you be richly blessed for your continued support.
