Every gift of $9 helps one child receive therapy.
Children in Kenya, just like other parts of the world, experience some aspects of life that cause trauma. Very often trauma experienced stems from separation/divorce, abandonment, sickness, violence and death in the family.
The growing number of children experiencing violations of various forms, especially sexual exploitation, child labor, early marriages, threats of or actual female genital cut are left with marks that turn around their lives. The good part is that there is a growing number of children stepping forward seeking for help. Unfortunately, some of the children remain silent: locked up in a world that shut down for them with the experience.
They need to be supported to live through the emotions, unlock the gates to their inner beauty in-order to thrive now and into their future. Counselling is not commonly programmed for children in our community, thus not accessible to majority of the children, especially those living in very vulnerable circumstances.
Life Bloom celebrates 20 years (2004-24) of supporting more than 13,800 children, girls, women and men through a dynamic holistic approach (www.lifebloomservices.org). Among the GIFTS planned for our children providing professional counselling for 1000 needing children in the year 2024, children who have not experienced the gift of counselling, yet wallow in psychological stuck-ness. Life Bloom has operated with a pool of qualified counsellors ready and already holding up this project. Child Centered Art and Play Therapy approaches are used. Continued counsellor related up-skilling, de briefing and counsellor supervision is part of the planned.
What remains is for some of the children to receive sponsorship for this life -changing transformative healing journey. This is the reason we come to you with a request: SPONSOR A CHILD WITH A CONTRIBUTION OF $9 (USD 9).
Gift one or more children and be part of celebrating LifeBloom@20 family!
