Waweru grew up in the slums of Nairobi, where his dreams were as simple as surviving past 21 and eating one meal a day. But everything changed when he was sponsored through Compassion International. In this deeply moving conversation with Bjorn and Sela, Waweru reflects on his childhood, the realities of life in poverty, and how child sponsorship opened his eyes to a world beyond the slum.
He shares how faith, community, and the care of complete strangers gave him hope and eventually, a life in Aotearoa New Zealand. If you've ever wondered if sponsoring a child really makes a difference, this is the story you need to hear.
