Bright Deaf Boy Seeks Education Funding
A family in Org’os, Kajiado Central Sub County is seeking assistance from well-wishers to help them educate their 16-year-old son who is deaf and mute.
Shadrack Saitore had been attending the Ilbissil School for the Deaf and performing well until he was unable to enroll at the Machakos School for the Deaf due to a lack of school fees.
His father, Pushati ole Sonto, stated that his son has been at home for over a year due to the lack of funds to continue his education.
Pushati explained that the drought, which adversely affected Kajiado County, had wiped out all of his livestock, which was his sole source of income, and left him with no other means to pay for his son’s education.
Saitore’s mother, Nareni Pushati, expressed her confidence in her son’s abilities and obedience, stating that he loves God and is bright. Although he was born differently-abled, she believes that he will be able to change their family’s fortunes if he is educated.
Saitore expressed his desire to continue his education through sign language, stating that he wants to help his elderly parents whose livelihood has been devastated by the drought.
Any well-wishers who wish to help the family can contact their representative, Emmanuel Saimuta, through the mobile number 0721393959.
The family’s appeal for assistance highlights the need for support for differently-abled children in rural areas, especially during challenging times like droughts.
It is essential to provide equal opportunities for children with disabilities to receive an education and break the cycle of poverty in their families.
Providing financial support for their education will not only help the children but also improve the standard of living for their families and the communities they live in.
