An OFDC Success Story

A letter from Joyce Munai in Kenya



I come from a family of nine children in the rural Olpusimoru area. My father has been a drunkard since I come to age drinking cheap illicit brews. This left my mother to ensure that were fed, clothed and educated.

My mother has struggled but due to the large number of the family not all of us were lucky to go to high school. I count myself as one of the lucky few who managed to complete high school.

I was even more lucky the O.F.D.C took me to college and I graduate with an advanced certificate in Information Technology. Early this year I got a job on probation as a Secretary at Olposimoru High School. I count myself that when I needed help most O.F.D.C come to my aid through Patrick. I cant thank you enough all I say thank you a lot. I will also treasure your support not only to me but to all the children O.F.D.C is supporting.

Thank you all,

-Joyce Chekemoi Munai
