Sponsorship

“When I reported to secondary school, I didn't have the required school fees amount and I knew that, even after admission, I would be called anytime and sent to fetch school fees from home. If that day ever came, I knew it would be my last in secondary school because my family couldn't afford to raise the required fees amount”

Faith - class of 2011

“Our focus as a big family in a small house in Kitui was to survive. The environment did not allow us to talk about dreams that might probably never come true. Precious Sisters lifted a heavy burden from my shoulders by paying my school fees through high school and that meant that I could focus on my studies and make my dreams happen”

“Investing in our education has had a multiplication effect over the years. We have become a beacon of hope to our families and communities. Soon we will be standing along with you impacting change through financial support and mentoring which Precious Sisters has embraced to produce all rounded young women”

Mary – class of 2009

“Transitioning in to high school proved to be a challenge for me as some of my relatives started washing their hands of me while others tried their best to make sure that I did not continue schooling. It was at this time that Precious Sisters opened doors for me. The financial burden had been lifted from my shoulders. Beyond school every child needs a home, a safe environment and caring grown ups to look up to. It was the opposite for me. I dreaded being at home and Precious Sisters in effect became my family”

Mirriam – class of 2019

“Most of my fellow primary school classmates and childhood friends have kids, are married, some separated and sadly some passed away. Were it not for Precious Sisters, I would be in the married, separated and probably single mother group. Precious Sisters secured my future through educating me in one of the academically top high schools in the country. I am an inspiration to my family and my community at large”

Dafrose – class of 2016

“My family and I are forever grateful for what Precious Sisters has done for me. For stepping in when I had lost all hope of ever getting through high school, for giving me hope for the future, for showing me the importance of always putting God first in everything that I set out to do and for teaching me the value of hard work, ambition, self-belief and commitment. Thank you for giving me the tools to navigate school life and also my personal life. I will never take it for granted and may God continue to bless you.”

"We are kept fully informed and updated by Precious Sisters. We have lovely emails from the girl we sponsor telling us how she is getting on, what she is up to, her plans for her future and sounding so happy to be at school."

"If you are thinking of becoming a sponsor we would absolutely say go ahead. You will find it an awesome and rewarding experience both for the girl you would be sponsoring and for you. And every penny you donate goes to the school which the girl you are sponsoring attends"

"I, and the members of my Rotary Club, have been well pleased, and are happy to continue the sponsorship for the next 3 years"

"Precious Sisters goes to great lengths to see that you are kept fully informed throughout the girl’s time at school and your input is welcomed"

"We have been struck by the Precious Sisters’ total commitment to the girls"

"One hears so often that if you sponsor a child with a charity you are given the name of the child that you are sponsoring but you have no contact with the child and little with the charity. Nothing could be more different with Precious sisters. Each term we receive a copy of the girls report and a newsletter about the charity and what has been going on. We receive a report of the mentoring days and much other information"

"The first girl that we sponsored came from a difficult home life. She was living with her mother in Mathare, a slum in Nairobi, where her mother sold vegetables on the side of the road to make a living. Her father had left. She was bright but needed a chance. At one point she had to go back a year in school which took a lot of management and encouragement. This was handled very well by Precious Sisters and we were kept informed and were asked for our input which was so good"

"If you sponsor a girl through Precious Sisters you will enable a girl to reach her potential and also enable her to help her family and improve her country over time"

"Above all you will get a great deal of pleasure knowing that you are doing something really worthwhile"
