Irene Namwano and her son Dickson care for children and young people whose parents are either in prison or have passed away. They make sure the children can attend school, organize food, medical appointments, and visits with family members (for example, visiting parents in prison to maintain contact). Irene and Dickson provide love, care, and a sense of security.
Help for a Smile was founded to support Irene and Dickson—and now more than 16 children and young people—in the long term. We are very happy that, thanks to your support, this has been possible since 2013. THANK YOU!
