Kitu Gandi Ponda
Girl, 9 years old

Kitu and her two siblings live with their grandmother in Moi Village. Her father left the family and her mother died of lung cancer in March 2022. Kitu is in grade 3 at St. Clement Primary School. The grandmother makes mats and baskets and sells them to try to cover her grandchildren’s needs. Kitu and her family are very grateful to be sponsored by Roy & Patti Guptill and the Gilhousen Family Foundation.
