Kellen is moving on up!

By Sarah Seltz | Development and Grants Manager

Kellen and family in front of their old home
Kellen and family in front of their old home

Meet Kellen. She is a 76-year-old woman raising five grandchildren between the ages of four and eight!

Kellen is an amazing woman and loves her family deeply. She has been an active member of her Nyaka Granny Group for many years and has received agricultural hoes, water harvesting tanks, and attended group trainings. Besides the struggles of raising five young children, Kellen was also challenged with providing a safe and stable home for her family. Her house was old and in very poor condition with a grass-thatched roof, crumbling kitchen, and a leaking pit latrine. It was no place for an elderly woman and five young children to live, so her Granny Group chose her to receive a new home. Construction is almost complete and Kellen couldn’t be happier.

Because of YOUR donation, new homes can be built for grandmothers like Kellen. Thank you for changing the lives of women who have nowhere else to turn!
