About

Charles is an orphaned boy who is determined and hardworking. His single mother passed on in 2009, leaving him under the care of his aged grandparents. He is the only child in his family. Charles did his national exam and emerged to be the best student in his class! His elderly grandparents are not in a position to cater for his secondary school fees since they have no source of income. Charles has always chased his dream of becoming a nurse and he believes that once you choose hope, anything is possible. He is a fan of playing football during his leisure time.

Hi Charles,
I’m happy to be able to contribute to your school fees, It’s wonderful that you are helping your guardians during the school break. I’m sure they appreciate your help and company. . I hope you are enjoying the break and will return to school in January refreshed and ready to start the new school year.
I just returned from 3 weeks in Kenya visiting a small school near Kikuyu. I am always impressed by how hardworking and friendly Kenyan students are.
I wish you much success in your studies this year and some fun in sports and choir as well.
Merry Christmas!
Karen
