| Peter Elgwam, a former street-boy is now in a rehabilitation programme at Pepo la Tumaini Jangwani. When Peter came to Tumaini he was extremely ill and malnourished. He had been living at the market carrying out casual labour and habitually sniffed glue. He was brought to Tumaini by women from the market who have formed a group called The Concubines. The Concubines fight against sexual exploitation and abuse of children in the market. UNICEF supports Tumaini with nutrition supplements – 10kgs of UNIMIX per vulnerable child/family member per month – and equipment and training for home-based care. |
