I met a a student at the mission site and asked him why he wasn't in school. His reply was that his grandmother, who he lives with, couldn't afford the school tuition for him to attend school. His name is Ken Muthee and he is in sixth grade. He is not one of the MWAKI orphans for he has a mother, but lives with his grandmother. On the day that we visited the elementary school, I gave the head teacher 500 shillings for Ken's tuition for ten months, which is about $6.00. There was 50 shillings left for him to buy a pair of shoes.
