There are about 150 million street kids around the world that need help. Let's start by helping one.
Vincent is a 12 year old boy who has lived on the streets of Nairobi, Kenya for about 2 years. Last year he started to attend TRU Africa's mission to street kids in Kenya, and has shown an amazing amount of leadership potential.
Recently, he also showed an act of radical love by not only giving away his supper, an orange, to other children, but by going the extra mile to go back and peel the orange for these kids when he realized they were too young to do so themselves.
We were motivated by Vincent to see that love doesn't just give the orange, love peels the orange too.
We want to get Vincent off the streets by sharing his story of generosity with others. You can help by taking the Love Peels the Orange Challenge. Here's how:
1) Give
Give $5 or more to help get Vincent off the streets. It will take $5,000 to get Vincent off the streets, get him an education, and train him for a job over the next several years.
Any more than $5,000 that is raised will go to help other kids like Vincent. We currently work with about 350 street kids, and that number is always growing, so there's plenty of help needed.
2) Share
We want you to share this challenge by recording and sharing a video of you telling a story of how someone peeled the orange, or went the extra mile, for you. It can be anyone--a teacher, a parent, a child, etc. But here's the catch: we want you to peel an orange while you are telling the story (yes, tangerines and cuties are acceptable too!). Then challenge 3 friends in the video to take the challenge as well.
Simply share the link of this page in the post as well (facebook, instagram, twitter), and you're set!
Can you still participate if you chicken out and don't want to do a video? Sure. It's kinda cheating, but we'll give you a pass;)
Note: you do not have to be challenged first to share a video. Be a trend setter! Make a video and challenge your friends!
3) Peel
Then it gets fun. Go live out Vincent's story by helping someone in need, and go above and beyond the call of duty when you do so.
