Despite working two jobs, his father struggled to support his family.
As our team began to work with Kaami’s family, we helped them understand the importance of education in creating a brighter, more sustainable future for everyone.
We helped Kaami gain the necessary documentation he needed to enrol in school, and we gave him a school bag containing everything he needed to get an education and thrive in classes.
With this new start, Kaami stopped begging and now visits the children’s activity centre to complete his homework and study after school. His attitude and behaviour have improved and his family, especially his mother, is delighted with his progress and the positive changes he has made.
