Local Heroine Naumi Jepchirchir Brings Unexpected Blessings to Her Community
In a remarkable turn of events, Naumi Jepchirchir, who gained local fame simply by being photographed alongside a Presidential chopper, has become a beacon of hope for her family and community. The viral photograph taken by Naitwa Mwangi has led to a wave of generosity and support from various quarters.
Naumi’s sister, Damaris Too, a student at Kombe Secondary School, faced significant financial challenges due to outstanding school fees. Thanks to the attention garnered by Naumi’s viral moment, Damaris’s fees have been fully cleared. Her brother, also a student at Kemeloi Secondary School, has similarly benefited from the unexpected goodwill, with his fee arrears being settled.
In addition to the financial support for education, the family received essential items through a shopping spree organized by well-wishers. Naumi herself will soon receive new school uniforms from Dsquare Uniforms Limited, enhancing her educational experience. Further exciting developments are anticipated from Baraton, promising additional support.
Naumi’s sister, attending Baraton International School (BIS), has also received new uniforms in preparation for the upcoming school term, thanks to the widespread generosity inspired by their story.
The ripple effect of Naumi’s story has extended beyond her immediate family. Zuriel Technical Training Institute in Eldoret has generously offered 10 scholarships to local neighbors, with classes set to begin in January 2025.
The careful selection process for these scholarships is underway.
In a final act of kindness, Moita Adventures has extended an invitation to Naumi and her siblings for a visit to Baringo on Sunday, August 25, 2024, providing them with an opportunity for a memorable outing.
The Jepchirchir family’s home is in immediate need of essential supplies, including beddings, foodstuffs, clothing, and shelter. The community’s response to Naumi’s story has highlighted their plight, and continued support is being sought to address these urgent needs.
Stay tuned for further updates as this inspiring story of generosity and community spirit unfolds.
