These two sisters have been rescued from their father who kept them at home so that he could find husbands for them to receive the dowries.
Thankfully due to the intervention of the community, school, and chief, he has returned them to school. They have temporarily started in Grade One at Nkineji as borders, subject to us finding sponsors.
We are looking for two sponsors, individuals or groups who can donate £18 a month to allow us to keep them safe in school, feed them, educate them, and give them their childhoods and lives back.
Please message us if you would like further information.

UPDATE:
Thank you so much, we now have a sponsor for Nashipae. Later today they will be told that they are safe and can remain in school.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!

UPDATE:
We have a sponsor for Nashipae’s sister and would very much like to be able to tell both sisters at the same time that they are now safe and won’t have to return to their father who wants to sell them into marriage.
Maybe you and two of your friends or family can afford the equivalent of two cups of coffee a month (£6) to sponsor Nashipae to keep her in school in a safe environment which will not only allow her to have an education but will give her a childhood. This fee also pays for their uniform, a pair of shoes, soap, toothpaste, etc, and sheets for her bed.
As a small charity we have low overheads and every penny we receive from sponsors goes directly to support the children. Trustees pay all their own travel costs when we meet to visit the schools.
