Samson "Sam" Odhiambo

Sam's mother is a widow who does laundry to earn a living. Her wages largely go toward their rent. His father died in 2021. He has two sisters and a younger sibling from a different father who is not involved. Sam is outgoing and resourceful, making toys with found items. The children often miss school due to lack of fees. They all live in a tiny home with only one chair. A sponsor for Sam will help ensure he can continue in school and take a huge burden off of his mother.
