Life in Pendekezo Letu

Life in Pendekezo Letu is more better than life on the Street Of Nairobi.
This is because on the street we are Beaten by police men and the big boys we sleep

Without food or sometimes eat dirty food?
Lack shelter
And madicino when we fall sick and no body cares
About us at all.

In Pendekezo Letu we eat a lot of food we have
People who care and love us we go to class and we
Are taught different subjects like English Maths Science

Kishwahili and above all we are given clothes and hope
For the future.
In Pendekezu Letu we are involved in many activities
Like cooking sweeping washing clothes and dancing singing And sports.

We thank
Pendekezo Letu for the support and good
Things it is giving to us and many other street children
We pray that it continues with the good work it is doing

For the needy and desperate children.
Thank you long live
Pendekezo Letu

Just Because I'm a Street Girl

I have something to say,
But I'm a street girl and nobody cares.
I have a point to make,
But nobody listens.

If a child lives with hostility,
She learns to fight.
If a child lives with encouragement,
She learns confidence.
If a child lives with praise and friendship,
She learns to find love in the world.

But I look around and ask myself
"Where is my helper?"

Just because I'm a street girl nobody cares.
I beseech you be merciful to street children
And come to their aid.
They need food, clothing and education,
But most of all they need love.

Children are the pride of Africa.
