**Patrick is the 5th born in his family living with his Aunt and one sibling in a one bedroom & living room house. Patrick’s father died 3years ago; he had HIV/AIDS and hung himself. His mother also died last year on July 12, 2017 from HIV/AIDS.**
**Patrick’s Aunt is a casual laborer; she works in other people’s gardens digging. She can dig for 1-2 weeks and earn $5.71. Digging in other people’s gardens is seasonal and it is done by many people in their village therefore, she doesn’t get such work on a monthly basis.**
**They have a garden where they grow crops such as maize, beans, sweet potatoes and cassava for home consumption only. The money Patrick’s Aunt earns from casual laboring is used to pay for their basic needs such as buying kerosene for their, soap for laundry, their medical bills and paying for her children’s school tuition but it’s not enough hence needing help with her child’s education.**
