Publisher's summary

Riley Unlikely is the inspiring story of Riley Banks, who first traveled to Kenya at age 13, and has been back every year since, bringing backpacks of school supplies and hygiene kits for young girls, developing relationships and friendships, and is currently, as a young millennial, raising money to build a complete learning complex in Kibwezi, Kenya for those who have nothing.

At age 16, Riley learned that, because of a rare medical condition, she would never be able to have her own children. Devastating news to most young women, especially those who love children and have always dreamed of having their own family. But Riley's response was: Kenya has given me a thousand children.

Riley's stories of her trips to Kenya, her struggles to figure out how to best serve and care for these people she has fallen in love with, and her own unexpected health issues are funny, compelling, and gripping. Listeners will find that God writes surprising stories in the lives of those who follow him. Hard to put down, Riley Unlikely will inspire you to pursue your dreams and make a difference in your own world - and around the world.

Amazing and encouraging

I love this book soooo much and i think it so inspiring and I feel so bad for people in Africa so when she shared her story I got overwhelmed by sadness and happiness and gratitude. Thank you Audibde for having this book on here.
