kenana knitters

So many of us have come to Kenana when we were completely desperate, we had reached a point where we didn't know where to go to find help. I was very lucky,  Paddy helped me and my child, and then she gave me a job.

I really thank Kenana for the support and for uplifting the local women. If it was not for the knitters many of us would be sitting idle at home.

As the oldest sibling;  after the death of my parents a lot of responsibilities  fell on me. I have been able to support my brothers and sisters through my work at Kenana and they are now all independent with families of their own.
