PRIVATE
Parents to Kenya age 5, named after our first trip to Buru Buru in Kenya, and Emma age 21.
“I could have ended up in all sorts of places, but ended up with the right family and the right mother. I’m glad it was exactly where I got my start and I can draw some clear parallels between the children in the children’s villages and my own life.”
MOTIVATION
“Our first trip to Kenya in 2014 changed our lives. The contrast between the relentless Kibera slum and the beautiful, life-affirming children’s village of Buru Buru, was striking. It was completely inconceivable to us how little it costs to change a child’s life forever. We realized that life is about changing the world for the better, if one can. It also makes your own life better to contribute positively to other people’s lives.”
– Mathilde Gøhler, co-founder of MY FOUNDATION.
“When I was under one year old my mother had to give up taking care of me because of my illness. I was then adopted by a married couple south of Copenhagen. I could have ended up in all sorts of places, but I ended up with the right family and the right mother. I’m glad it was exactly where I got my start, and I can draw some clear parallels between the children in the children’s villages and my own life.”
– Remee S. Jackman, co-founder of MY FOUNDATION.
