Change a life today, Give them a better future.
Making the decision to sponsor a child is a personal one, not an easy choice as all of the children are precious and in need, with their own unique stories. Some sponsors prefer for us to choose for them, which we are happy to do.
We welcome your enquiry regarding the below three listed children or any of our other children.
Shawn, 7 years
Shawn's mum was a sponsored child herself many years ago. She fell pregnant in secondary school. With the support of Boldlyigo Inc. she remained at school and now has a small Hair Salon that she runs from a corrugated shed in Nakuru. Shawn is a happy little boy who has just started grade 1. Being a single mother, raising a little boy is quite a job, BIG provides education support and counselling for all our carers and children.
Joseph, 5 years
Joseph is a shy young boy. Boldlyigo Inc. provides extra support for Joseph's family such as rent and food, as his mum suffers from mental illness. She loves her kids but is unable to manage day to day life. By supporting the family we are able to keep them together and off the streets. Joseph has just started school and is looking for a sponsor to support him on his journey in life.
what happens after sponsoring a child
welcome
Welcome
After sponsoring, you will receive an email with photos of your child, welcoming you to the ‘BIG family’.
We will contact you by phone to answer any queries you may have.
what will happen
Your child will attend a local school in their primary years and most will attend a boarding school in their secondary years. Though boarding school is more expensive it helps the children to focus on their school work and receive regular nutritious meals and help in a structured environment.
Our Field Officer; Betty Muriithi will visit the children at school and at home. Where possible, photos are taken and interviews with carers and teachers are done.
All activities and finances are strictly monitored by our Australian team – both here and in Kenya.
What Won't happen
You will not receive constant mail or emails asking for more money.
Your details will not be shared. We value your trust and support.
during the year
As our Field Officer; Betty Muriithi visits the children, she gets photo updates and information on your child. These will be emailed to you. It is always exciting to see what the children are up to.
You can also send letters and photos to your child. We are happy to email them through and provide photos showing your child receiving them.
Quarterly newsletters will also be emailed to you.
Opportunities are there also to visit your child.
