Find Me Unafraid

Love, Loss, and Hope in an African Slum

Kennedy Odede

"Find Me Unafraid" is an inspiring love story between Kennedy Odede, who grew up in Kibera, the largest slum in Africa, and Jessica Posner from Denver, Colorado. Together, they founded Shining Hope for Communities (SHOFCO) and Kibera's first tuition-free school for girls, transforming the lives of vulnerable girls and the urban poor in Kenya. Their alchemy drew the support of community members and celebrities like Mia Farrow, The Clintons, and Nicholas Kristof. This remarkable union proves the power of young people to have a deep impact on the world and fight against poverty and hopelessness.

These are the stories that give me hope for humanity. Visiting them in Kenya was completely life changing. Pick up a copy of this book and let them blow your mind.      source
