Residence: In community with her 70+ year old grandmother

Background:

Juliet Mbithe Keli was born on 25th February, 2002. She is 9 years old. Her mother passed away in 2005 and her father in 2007, both from a long illness. She is in standard 3. In her last exams, she was position 25 out of 45 kids in her class.

She lives with her 70+ year old grandmother and her 3 siblings. On their 2 acre piece of land, they grow maize and trees. They also have 3 goats. These are the things the grandmother sells to provide for her grandchildren. She also gets some support from her grown up children and well wishers.

They live in a brick and iron sheet house and Juliet sleeps on a wooden bed with her elder sister. Her wish list includes mattress, blankets, uniform, textbooks, food and bedsheets. This can be fulfilled with a $128 donation.
