    HOPE: Journeys of Restoration

    Celebrating a milestone as we near the end of 2021;   4,000+ children are back with their families from the streets since the work began!  Some have got their own families and living their dreams.  We thank God and rejoice for restored hope where there was hopelessness. In October, 44 children were removed from the streets and they are at home with their families.

    MUSA

    When we met him, Moses was lonely on the streets but he was not sniffing glue or jet fuel like the other children on the streets. He had no more strength to face another day on the streets where he and other children salvaged plastic bottles from the waste to sell for food.

    By then he had been trapped by the desperation and realization that his dream of joining high school would quickly vanish if he never took action to find a way. He came to the city to look for casual jobs to save some money to join high school. He had endured insult from a group of vendors and chased by the police several times. To make matters worse, he had been harassed by some of the older boys who stole the little money he had managed to earn toward school. He had no courage to carry on.

    Tumaini team took him aside and bought him some food as they talked. Musa was very ready to go home.We reunited Musa with his family in the slums and found him a sponsor who paid his school fees to join high school.

    4 years later, he was through with his high school final exams, got good grades and he was ready to join college.

    A week ago, Musa joined college to pursue a Diploma in Tourism Management. The same sponsors agreed to support Musa to pursue this 3-year-course.  We thank God that Musa is on his transformation journey as he acquires a new skill for life.

    LYN

    Lydia’s story is one of a kind. At home the sun was scorching, poverty and desperation was the order of the day for Lydia’s family. Something changed when Tumaini team brought their daughter back home from the streets. We found a sponsor who supported the family and Lydia to go back to school. Her parents expressed gratitude to Tumaini Kwa Watoto for Lydia going back to school. Without this support, she would have been married off like many young girls in her community.

    From our recent home visit, it was evident that Lydia was the hope for her family and community.  Lydia is in Form 1 in a secondary school near her home. We were their visitors, and the community members confirmed that Lydia signifies hope for them and their younger children.   We pray for protection for Lydia to continue standing out in her community in her generation

    Dave

    Life was not easy when David’s mother abandoned him as a young child and left him with his grandmother. His grandmother enrolled him into a nearby school but, he dropped out of school and never to return. The search form went on for months around his village.  We later found him on the streets in a deplorable condition and he was ready to go home. 

    We reunited him with his family but he did not settle. He ran away again due to the stigma and negative peer influence. This time round, he was on the street for a short time but had started sniffing glue which affected his respiratory system and he just wanted to go back home.

    At home, David’s grandmother and uncle took care of him and he was returned to school.  There is hope for David because God is a father to the fatherless. (Psalm 68:5) In our recent home visit, David looked optimistic about what the future holds for him.  He is now ready to go for it.

    Faith

    Faith is 15 and had lived on the streets for months. There was no food at home and life was very difficult, so she decided to look for food. She would take the hour-long walk to the streets after school and return home at night, but slowly she started sleeping on the streets until the streets became her home. The mother who is the sole bread winner had separated with husband years back.

    It was hard to keep an eye on her daughter as she was busy doing casual labors. But when Faith never returned home, she began searching for her. Tumaini team found Faith on the streets and reunited her with her mother. She was re-enrolled in school, and she is doing well. The family was supported with food stuffs and the mother was empowered to start a small business to boost her earning in providing for her family.

    Thank you our friends for your continued support toward our work. Empowering families and children !!!

    HOPE: Monitoring Children’s Progress in education

    Two of our young men have joined University this September! Bri is pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in General Arts while Charlie is pursuing a degree in Information Technology.  We rejoice with these young people and their sponsors who have enabled them access education.
    We celebrate 87 children who were removed from the streets and reintegrated with their families in September.

    Many children not only those living in the streets, miss out on their right to education and are vulnerable. Because their situations can be difficult, solutions are needed to help them get into learning.

    The right to a quality education is one of the highlights Tumaini Kwa Watoto follows through after a child is reunited with their families. It is also a most effective way to enable these children integrate into the society. We ensure that each child rescued has an equal opportunity for educational progress and this has allowed them to transverse their unique journeys and carve a place for themselves.

    Highlights from follow up visits monitoring our children’s progress:

    16-year-old Elena* came from a needy family and her life has been full of uncertainty because of her family’s situation. Tumaini Kwa Watoto team focused on making Elena* lead a normal life. She was enrolled back to school and over time she seems visibly happy and positive interacting with other children. Elena is still a shy and quiet girl, but she is more confident. She is in Form 3 in high school, has transformed herself into an ambitious young lady and is determined to achieve her aspirations.

    14 years old Mumo, is young and fragile, he needed to be rescued from the streets into a family that cares. After a family assessment, we took Mumo back to school to ensure his well-being. Over time, he was able to grasp new skills in education and learn. He is in class 8 preparing to sit for his final primary examination in April 2022. Mumo would like to join secondary school at the end of his primary school, but his family is poor. His dream is to become a teacher. His family is optimistic that their son will have a successful future. Partnering us to enable Mumo access education will ensure his dream comes true

    Sue 16-year-old left home after a neighbor promised to find her a job in the city. Her family was struggling to make ends meet. Excited by her opportunity Sue took the risk of coming to the city without her parents’ consent. But little did she know that the neighbor would leave her stranded. She was alone in a strange big city; Sue had no option but to look for a job as a domestic worker. She found a job where she toiled hard for long hours and begun to feel trapped in the situation with no way out.  However, day came when she planned to go back home but her employer refused to pay her. She ended up on the streets and that is where we found her. TKW team reunited Sue with her family, put back into school and she is now in Form 3 in a secondary school.

    TKW team found 14 years old James, all alone by on the streets. He had a wound on one of his foot and was in pain. Some boys on the streets had wounded him when he refused to sniff glue. He could barely walk but we knew home would be the best place for him. When we took him home, his parents shared that they had searched for him without success. They were glad to welcome him back home. They were thankful for TKW team’s care and concern for their son.  His family later took him back to school, and he is progressing well.

    THANK YOU!!

    We are living in uncertain times but restrictions are being lifted. People are starting to move around a bit more. Here in Tumaini Kwa Watoto, we are thankful to God for this far He has brought us.
    We are grateful to you, our friends for your generous gifts over the years.  Your gifts have enabled us to: Relate with children on the streets and vulnerable places, rescue them back into their families, Rehabilitate them and bring Restoration to their families and communities.

    Teamwork makes the dream work. We acknowledge our faithful supporters in UK, Kenya, Ghana, and other parts of the world. Our programs have been developed over the years in many ways making a long-term difference to the lives of children and their communities. Here are a few:
    Education sponsorship for reintegrated children changes lives.  It empowers for face the future with confidence.  Without education sponsorship they would have faced a dark future with no opportunity to break free from this cycle on their own.

    Diana is thankful for the opportunity she was given to come off the streets and back to school. She completed her high school education in April 2021 and now she is in college doing a catering course.

    Meshack and his brother had no hope of ever joining High school. They had to leave home at an early age to find casual jobs. But meeting with TKW team through your support, they are now progressing well in their education.

    In family empowerment Lucy’s case was exceptional amongst many. She was on the streets and not in school because her mother (Martha) had no work to support her children after their father abandoned them.
     
    Martha needed help and the only skill she had was tailoring. With the help of your kind gifts, we bought a sewing machine for her. Today she has her own shop, her children are back to school and her family has stabilized.

    Equipping the community through trainings and raising Community Volunteers has increased the No. of rescued children from streets and vulnerable situations into stable families. We have 7 consistent Community Volunteers in 6 Counties.  This is preventing more children from joining the streets.

    Our commitment to see lives of many children transformed and fulfilling their dreams is bearing fruit. 
    With your partnership, over 3,000 children have received support through school, family empowerment, Mentor-ship program and Community Trainings.

    Thank you our friends and partners! You are our victors who make this dream work.

    Tumaini News- July 2021

    HOPE: IMPACTING THE FUTURE GENERATION THROUGH MENTOR-SHIP

    Tumaini Kwa Watoto rescues children between the ages of 8 – 14 years from the streets which represents school going children. There are children in primary and secondary schools and over time we have realized that adolescent years can feel like a roller coaster ride. It is the period of transition between childhood and adulthood. It includes some big changes to the body and to the way a young person relates to the world.

    These changes include physical, sexual, cognitive, social and emotional changes that happen during this time can bring anticipation and anxiety for both children and their parents. Understanding what to expect at different stages of life will promote healthy development throughout adolescence and into early adulthood. 

    Tumaini Kwa Watoto incorporates mentor-ship visits to schools and this term it was a great opportunity to invest in the young generation at St. Paul Secondary School. The teachers and students welcomed us and the school principal introduced us.  The school has a capacity of 600 students. The Guidance and Counseling teacher brought together the students in one hall and invited TKW team to share with them.

    It was two hours of an impacting session for the students who had many questions that demanded answers.

    • Home and environment
    • Education and Employment
    • Sexuality
    • Drugs

    Collectively, we must work to change the story of these young people and ensure they are surrounded by caring adults who can help them navigate the ups and downs of adolescence.

    HOPE: Empowering families and changing lives together

    Every child on the street has a reason for being there; either as casualties of domestic violence, poverty, displacement, dysfunctional family or lured by their peers to the excitement of freedom. Tumaini Kwa Watoto works in reuniting these children from the streets with their families and finding strategies for the family. In June 50 were reunited with their families from the streets, making a difference to the lives of many children and families in their communities; the best solution and our first option. In TKW we know getting the children back to with their families is our first option is the best solution when possible. But few children return to the streets because their parents are not able to provide basic needs their due to lack of proper income generating activities. Strengthening the family structure: We use various strategies to improve a family’s livelihood and provide for their children, including starting or expanding their small businesses. This is a preventative measure that stops children from going back to the streets and settles them back home.  

    Here are some highlights of families empowered with small businesses:

    14 years old Mercy joined the streets because her life was in danger due to the business the mother was doing. She was a bar attender, and she would often bring different men in their house. Her daughter would be in danger of sexual abuse. Tumaini Kwa Watoto reunited Mercy with her mother and empowered her to start a new business as a food vendor which has provided economic stability to her family. “My life has since changed since I have a different way of making a living, my daughter is safe. I cook food from this place and supply it to the construction buildings around here. This is a better way of earning an income and I am happy my children are now settled.”

    We rescued 9 year old Mua from the streets and took her home to her mother. Mua’s mother had a small baby and 2 other children. She was separated from Mua’s father, and she was doing all she could to put food on the table for her children. That’s how the young girl ended up on the streets due to inadequate food at home.

    Wanza, Mua’s mother’s green-grocer kiosk was almost collapsing. Today, a partner with Tumaini Kwa Watoto is helping her to expand her business so that she can support her family. “I will work hard to grow my business to double up the income.  I know my business will do well as I have a variety of fruits and vegetables to sell. With adequate income, my children and I will have enough to buy food, pay rent and meet other family needs.”

    Jose 12 years old was rescued from the streets and taking him home, the mother who is single was doing small scale farming. The mother has 3 children and she shared her main income was chicken rearing. Her farming was affected by the pandemic and that meant she could not provide adequately for her children leading Joseph to join the streets in search of food and menial jobs. “During good times, I used to sell several trays of eggs daily. Due to the pandemic, the farming business was affected and my business collapsed. Some chicks died and due to lack of food, there were no eggs to sell and no money to buy basic needs for my children. Tumaini Kwa Watoto has boosted my business and I am sure soon I will be able to supply eggs in my village and shops again. This will help stabilize my family. Thank you.’

    HOPE is Celebrating TRIPLE JOY

    Empowering Children through Education

    The first half of 2021 has been a season of joy for us at Tumaini Kwa Watoto.  We have many reasons to be joyful and grateful that our investment in children has paid off…

    First, three young men rescued from the streets, reunited their families and back to school joined university this year.  This is a testimony that children on the streets are just that – children.  The future is looking bright for these three as they pursue their dreams.
    Secondly, (70) young people sat for Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (K.C.S.E) -exams taken after four years of high school. 4 qualified to join public universities.  24 qualify to join colleges and 40 + for vocational training.We are celebrating our young people for their success!
    Thirdly, we had over two hundred children sitting for Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (K.C.P.E); an exam that is taken after eight years of primary education.  Most of our children qualify to join secondary schools this July.  Their stories are beautiful.

    Mitch: We rescued Mitch from the streets in 2019 and reunited him with his family. This year he completed his primary exam scoring 387 marks!!  This mark takes him to a national high school. He attributes his success to timely rescue, hard work and discipline as he wants to become a lawyer. He says, ’My grandmother was struggling to feed us that’s why I went to the streets to look for casual work. I would not have wished to be out of school.  I was taken back home and back to school. This was my opportunity to build my life and that of my family.  I feel more confident now as I look forward to joining high school.”  Will you support Mitch in paying his school fees for his dreams to come to pass?

    Juma: One of the joys of a parent is to see their children excelling.  Juma’s father who is also a pastor was overjoyed when his son completed his secondary exam and got a grade C-.  He shared with our team that this was a first in their community. “My son has made me very proud. Since his rescue in 2016, his focus changed. He is the only educated child in my family. Wish I could support 5 more because this would transform my community!”

    Brian: it has been a journey of 9 years since his rescue from the streets. He was in grade 5 then and after many long journeys and challenges, he completed his secondary school exams and got a C+. Brian will be joining University to pursue his career as a Clinical Medical officer.  We steadily watched his journey of restoration to a man with dreams.

    If many of these young men and women had remained on the streets, their stories would be quite different.

    Listen to our Partners’ joy

    “I’m greatly encouraged when I look at the list of young people who’ve completed high school.  This is God’s amazing work and we give him thanks.”

    ***

     “We are encouraged.  Our ‘little’ becomes much in His hands.  Each child has a storyline of divine intervention.  Psalm 65:2 “O You who hear prayer, to You all flesh will come.”

    ***

    “I am so pleased for Diana that she reached the end of school and, even though there will be many with higher results, I am sure Diana has worked hard to try and this is so much more than would have been possible if Children of Hope hadn’t enabled her to return home to her grandmother.”

    ***                                                                       

    “We appreciate your support for Hannington.  His future looked dim when we met him in 2017.  Now he can stand tall among his peers.”

    ***

    “Thank you for this wonderful news. We are delighted for Brian and he must be so proud of himself.”

    ***

    Our children overcame many obstacles related to life on the streets for some time and we celebrate their resilience. Parents supported their children, the government reopened schools closed due covid-19 and you our partners supported us to empower these families. Together we did this.  We appreciate all our friends and partners.

    HOPE – Through Empowerment

    This is an everyday scene on the city streets.  We meet over fifty (50) children (between 6 and 15 years) loitering aimlessly.  Most of them are supposed to be in school but they are on the streets begging and sniffing glue!  A few are innocent and new in the city; but many are desperate looking for an exit.    We step in to offer hope.

    Do their parents or caregivers know where these children are?  We do not stop with the question; we go further, engaging one child at a time. We make friends and remove them from the streets reuniting them with their family. At home we assess the need and find ways of supporting. We work in partnership with a local network of volunteers empowering the child and the family.

    In February 2021, we moved 51 children from the streets. 67 who had been rescued previously were and this month were put back into school with new uniforms and other school requirements. 3 families were supported with small business and other income generating activities were boosted.

    Lynda comes from central Kenya. She was introduced to the streets by a friend and once on the streets, she was lost. It wasn’t long before we found her, rescued her and reunited her with her mother. Her mother is a single mum and has two children under her care. She works as a casual laborer in a farm to provide for her family. Tumaini Kwa Watoto supported Lynda’s mother to put Lynda back in school

    Bri is from eastern Kenya. His family is poor and his parents are separated. Bri has 3 siblings and their mother is the sole provider. They live in one rented room but they are often unable to pay rent because his mother is not well. Bri had joined the streets due to this poverty and to look for casual work to support his mother. He is only in grade 6 and is now back in school. Tumaini Kwa Watoto team is strengthening this family and looking for ways of giving them economic empowerment to provide for their basic needs.

    Thanksgiving and Prayer requests

    • Pray for 51 children rescued and reunited with families in February 2021 and for a breakthrough in the restoration process with their families.
    • Give thanks for the children who have joined school and thank God that He’s helping them to adjust to both home and school environment.
    • Pray for those who may not want join school to find their way in joining skills training.
    • Pray for peace to rest upon these children together with their families and communities.

    HOPE- WOUNDS THAT TIME HEALED…

    Wounds that time healed…

    Many children we rescue from the streets come from broken families. These children are often carrying pain, bitbitterness and hopelessness. Many times, streets seem the safest home for them. But we are Tumaini Kwa Watoto, restoring hope through the love of Christ.

    In July, 101 children were removed from the streets of different counties and this only means more families to restore.
    We tell a story today, of wounds that time healed…

    For year Elizabeth* endured physical abuse from her then-husband. She lived to shield her children from the violent man and many months at a time to leave, but ultimately having to go back because she never wanted her children to grow without a father..

    She was financial unstable and the husband’s control kept her from gaining stability on her own and for her children. Her husband made sure he had cut off any access to money for her and any time she begun a small business, he would destroy it.

    In reality, facing these overwhelming hurdles, Elizabeth never knew when these abuse would end or where to begin if she decided to separate from her abuser and hence  shelter, employment, childcare, safety, basic needs were her biggest cares.
    Staying seemed easier…She could endure the abuse for the sake of her children. Once in a while the abuser would change to a good and supportive man but never lasted for weeks without a negative shift. He was alcoholic and this was his means of power and control over Elizabeth. She was stuck…

    One day, the husband came home drunk and in his abuse tried to strangle her in front of her 3 children. This was the beginning of an end. The daughter who is in secondary school now, hit the abuser to release the mother. The husband turned his aggression to the daughter and that how Cynthia ended up on the streets- With no home, no family and no hope for the future. Was she finally ready to ask for support from someone?
    Yes, it was time for Elizabeth to quit the relationship, safe her children from the abuser and relocate to begin a new life. So she left the relationship feeling broken and full of pain. While the daughter 14 years old was at large, she went to different offices to report a lost daughter. And God connected Cynthia with TKW team while on the streets. The mother was traced and reunited with her daughter. This marked the beginning of Elizabeth and children healing journey. Through follow ups, counseling, prayers and financial support, Elizabeth wounds were healing. Her daughter, who had spent a few months on the streets, was returned home, back to school and connected with a supportive system to keep her focused.

    4 years later, Cynthia, Elizabeth’s daughter, is in a secondary school and in form 3. Supported by Tumaini Kwa Watoto; Elizabeth too opened a small business of selling clothings and that has stabilized her family though bringing up her children without their father.
    Because of your support through TKW, Elizabeth, Cynthia and many other families have found safety and stability.

    Call to Action

    This story is just one example of the impact your gift can have in the life of a child in our community. Your support has the chance to change an entire child’s life and that of their struggling family.

    Each family we help heal takes us one step closer to society restoration

    HOPE: FOR FAMILIES PUSHED TO THE EDGE

    HOPE: For families pushed to the edge

    Loss of income is devastating families in poverty, without work and no food on the table, making it hard to comply with government health advice. Most families depend on casual, low paid or unstable work and when a crisis like this happens, many have lost their jobs and have nothing to fall back on.

    Sadly, some homes are not always a safe haven, in times of financial stress.   Many children as forced to join the streets and that is why we keep going and keep calm in this storm because every child matters.

    During this covid-19 crisis, we have been there to support the poorest household with food and some cash to boost their livelihood. For children forced to study from home, we have bought educational materials for them. With this initiative we ensure that children, the most vulnerable family members are stopped from returning to the streets, safe and protected.

    EVERY CHILD HAS A STORY…

    92 children have been removed from the streets and reunited with their families by community volunteers.

    Here’s a snippet….

    Mwai says: ‘I have been in the streets for 2 months. The main reason that brought me to the streets is money. I wanted to look for money but didn’t find any. Life on the streets is not easy and we end up getting only a few coins for food. I am happy to go back home although my parents may not have money to give me, they could be looking for me.’

    Mwai was rescued and reintegrated with his family this month. As he had feared, his parents were looking for him and had reported his disappearance to the local authority.

    “I know that education is important and that is why I would like to go back when school opens,” Mwai concluded.

     

    Julius says, “I came to the streets because a friend introduced me. I have found life is hard here. We wake up in the morning, and walk begging for money from passersby in the streets, shops and any place that we think we might get help.

    Life on the street has not been good as my friend made it to be. One has to always be weary of police officers and county council officers who constantly arrest children on the streets. I have been brutally beaten many times and left to nurse injuries. The lock-down in Nairobi has stopped me from going back home”.

    Elsie says, “I love my mother very much and that’s why I’m not afraid of going home. I want to go back home for this is not a life I would wish on anyone. I have failed my mother and despised her with my behavior. If I get a chance to go back to school, I want to excel in my studies so that I can support her when I get a good job.

    Thank you, our friends and partners for walking with us. Tumaini Kwa Watoto team together with community volunteers in different Counties have related, rescued and reintegrated 92 children with their families in June.  Together making a lasting difference to the lives of children and their families!

    HOPE: LISTENING AND EDITING THEIR WRETCHED STORIES

    REFLECTION…

    How many times do we walk down the streets and judge others based on their looks, supposed poverty, smell, clothes, or presumed state of mind? But why must these judgments exist in everyday society? We are called to spread the pure “Love” of God, but we get held back by our own prejudices.

    As TKW we are always challenged to make sure our hearts are open-wide and welcome every person that we meet especially children on the streets and their families because Jesus afraid of the homeless.

    There are many children in the streets right now. Many who have been locked in the city due to the current lock down. Their desire is to go back home and TKW team has been meeting with them for a relating time, a meal and prayers to keep hope alive as they await their removal from streets once the lock down is over; hopefully soon.

    Ochieng is one of the young men TKW met. He is 15 and knows the streets too well, as he has lived there for over 7 months. His reason for being on the streets was disagreements with his parents.

     “I used to be very cunning and my parents kept on warning me about the behavior. “One day I met with some old friends who had dropped out of school and we left for the city. ”But in the streets life has not been easy. To survive, I have had to look for odd jobs to do…Before this crisis “I used to wash clothes for a friend of mine who was a shoes trader and he would pay me so coins to allow me to eat. Now, I just want to go home. I would love to go back to school.

    He was previously in Form 1 at a secondary school in Western Kenya.

    Chattering words 10-year-old Cynthia* says:

    “I do not know where my mum is, but I know that she is still alive. At times we have slept without food but I cannot complain – to whom, anyway? My father is working hard and I cannot discourage him. I only pray to God that one day my mother will come back so that we can all be a family again.”
    I want to learn a lot of things in school and to get an education. But now schools are closed…Who knows when they will open? I would like to become a doctor or a teacher and help other people especially children to get a happy life.

    As TKW team we pray the one day we shall come to meet Cynthia’s mother and ask her hard questions for her daughter…How could she as a mother walk away from her children? Were her children not embedded inside of her to an extent of abandoning them?

    Distressing Call from a Mother, Pulled Lurky Back Home

    “Hello, my name is Juliet . I have been given your contacts by a lady whose child was on the streets and you rescued them. My son got lost 1 month ago and I have reported the case to the nearby police station.  I hear he could be in town because he has always wanted to go to his grandmothers’ place.  Kindly his name is Lurky aged 11 years old… If you happen to find him on the streets please contact me. I shall be forever grateful…”

    This was Lurky’s mother distressing call to one of TKW team member. Her request seemed impossible as the team meets many children on the streets. Most of these children change their name to protect their identity bearing in mind that Lurky could have been in another town too. But the search was on.

    For a month, Lurky was nowhere to be found but as the team diversified the search; Lurky who is 11 years old was rescued from the streets by TKW team. Fortunately, he had not changed his name nor was he sniffing any glue. God had protected him.
