😮🤩Remember, ABIGAEL? 🤩😮
Yes, the girl who couldn’t join highschool and we mobilized to welcome her into the Heshima family.

Despite joining school late, she is exceeding
expectations across the board during her 1st term of highschool.

Just look at that report card. 🤩🧠💛

Onward and upward.
This is the Heshima effect

Heshima on 3. 1,2,3 - Heshima!

💛Meet SHONEY 💛

Shoney is a bright and resilient 8-year-old
whose strength and maturity far exceed her years.

She supports her family with love and responsibility. Her father is blind, and her brother is autistic, requiring ongoing care that places a heavy financial strain on the household. Her mother, the sole provider, works tirelessly through charcoal burning to meet their basic needs.

Despite these challenges, Shoney remains deeply committed to her education. She is academically gifted, calm, and observant, with a strong desire to learn.

She was at risk of dropping out due to financial hardship. With this sponsorship, Shoney has the opportunity to continue her education and build a brighter future for herself and her family. 💛

Thank you SO MUCH to Cody McKell for sponsoring Shoney.

💛Meet Manuela 💛

📚Welcome to the Heshima family Manuel and sponsors Emmanuelle and Linda 💛

Every once in a while, you meet a child who makes you stand with your back straight, because they elude royalty. Manuela is one of them.

As an 11 year old living with her great aunt, life has never been easy. While having no exposure to the world outside of her own, she simultaneously knows that there is more to the world than her eyes can see and arms can reach.

She is going places, this much we know. She is the author of her life, and Heshima will help her write the prelude.
