Jacinta

My name is Jacinta and I am an orphan. In 2013 when I came to Murang’a Kiota I was 15 years old. I was referred to Kiota by a children’s officer from the place where we lived in Nakuru. I became pregnant after being raped by a neighbor who tried to force me to terminate the pregnancy when he was reported to the police. I gave birth to a baby girl and through Kiota’s intervention one of my Aunts who had earlier rejected me accepted me and the child. My aunt agreed to take me back to school and care for my baby. I thank the Kiota for their support, love and care at a time when I did not know where to go.
