For many kids in the slums of Kenya, the promise of tomorrow is not always promising. For them, it may mean another day gone by on an empty stomach, another day spent scavenging for food in the garbage pits and yet another day of uncertainty. They are never sure of having a sound education, never sure of clothes on their back and never sure where their next meal will come from. And so they live each day as it comes. But through Christian Mission Aid (CMA), these kids have reason to hope for tomorrow. Mitumba slum, on the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya, is home to 15,000 people most of whom are single CMA supports children in the slums of Kenya by providing for both their physical and spiritual needs. Through CMA, these kids have a guarantee of a daily meal, clothes on their back and an education. The nutritious and well-balanced meal they receive at school is often the only meal the children have in the day. CMA also provides the children with uniforms, shoes, school supplies like notebooks, textbooks, pencils, and so on. CMA has also built classrooms for the schools so the students can have conducive studying and learning places in their challenging environments and has sponsored many successful graduates to attend high-school.
