AfricaIn the Busia region of Kenya, poverty, child marriage, polygamy, and endemic diseases like AIDS have led to high rates of early parental death. As a result, many children are abandoned, and the Peniel Orphanage cares for these children while also running the Joy World Mission School, providing free education and two meals a day. Our school aims to restore joy to children who have lost such due to hunger and lack of educational opportunities. We are dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty, nurturing these children to dream, and helping them grow into healthy leaders who can bring positive change to Kenyan society. Through our efforts, the children are learning to embrace hope and build a future filled with possibilities. Thanks to the generous support of the Global Children Foundation, significant changes have occurred in the lives of children who previously could not eat or attend school. Now, they can focus on their studies, dream of better futures, and actively prepare for what lies ahead. Their academic performance has shown excellent improvement, and their hopeful transformation continues to inspire the local community.
