THERE IS POWER AND HOPE IN UNITY

  I am a boy aged 16. By name I am Kelvin and my mother who is a widow had a lot of challenges since my father died while I was still young to bring up three of us (my two siblings and myself). She struggled and had to borrow from friends until she was almost abandoning us when things became too unbearable. However in 2008 she joined Shambekavu Widows Group which was able to provide a lot of support. They gave her morale and positive self esteem and physical support that also led to her self empowerment. She was able to solve many problems and now stands on a more secure ground.
