Economically challenged and being a single parent, Josephine’s first few years in the kingdom were a time of considerable instability. Just two years ago Josephine appeared in the newsletter of HOPE worldwide Kenya (HWWK) in an article called ‘A Mother’s Joy” that highlighted how she had needed support just to get by and to provide for her son.
